What child doesn’t long to spend a snow day off from school (that my generation never would have gotten) building a snowman? The kids around here haven’t had much opportunity to do that the last few years, but we had a small Christmas snow last year that, thanks to a prolonged frigid stretch, stuck around for several weeks. And when things finally started to thaw… this was the result. Three week old snowmen who’d seen better days sitting on ground that barely even had any snow on it anymore. This poor guy is filthy, seems to have lost an eye, is leaning like a tower in Pisa, and his stick arms seem to be signaling “Fuck it, bring on the hair dryer already!” Uh oh, here comes the nrighbor’s dog…

I think it was a very smart kid who built this guy… he has a hat and a scarf so he has it warm and comfy outside ;O)
When you’re built out of snow, the last thing you want to do is stay warm!
Yes, this guy is listing like the Titanic. Also it appears this neighbor has at least one cat – note the window blinds??? Yeah…..gotta be at least one cat in there!

I absolutely noted the window blinds since they look just like mine! I also think there are three kids living in that house, so I wouldn’t rule them out either….
The sad decline of Frosty. Very upsetting!
He just told the kids he’d be back someday so they’d never have to see him like this…
Love the list to one side. I feel somewhat like that today.
As long as you aren’t melting too…
Awww. Poor Frosty. You should’ve brought him in and stuck him in your freezer 😛
But there’s no room with all the bags of hail I’ve saved from past storms…
This guy is indeed sad – someone needed to put him out of his misery.
It’d be sad to see a snowman with a hair dryer to its own head…
Have you ever seen a happy snowman? Only in cartoons. 😦
Being a snowman isn’t the glorious life it’s been made out to be…
Ah yes. I remember this one. Frosty, finally realizing that his hat is NOT magic.
No magic is going to stop Spring from coming. And then summer….
Poor guy. He looks like a Western Washington snowman and they’re a sad, dirty lot, usually doomed to a very short existence.
It definitely sucks to be a snowman in an area that doesn’t have prolonged cold spells. RIP Frosty: January 1, 2018 – January 1, 2018
