It used to be that when it snowed,
the kids went out and tracked up the yard,
and the snowmen went up all around town.
We got a good foot of wet sticky snow the other day,
perfect for making balls.
I saw one snowman yesterday,
and it dawned on me that it was the only one I had seen.
Is this a dying tradition? Do kids still do this where you live?
I thought Calvin and Hobbs
could keep it alive,
but perhaps kids are too fat and lazy to go outside anymore.
