One of the very few things I like about winter is that people make snowmen. It is amazing how creative some people get. It is definitely a kind of seasonal folk art. Like this wonderful example which I saw when I had to take a detour through the little town of l'Orignal on Saturday. The main street was closed for the local Winter Carnival and I was driving down an unknown back street when I saw this snowman family. I just had to stop, admire, and take a picture of them. Aren't they great? They look so happy.

I have never seen snowmen with painted faces before - interesting mix of green and blue eyes. It is a lovely group of snowmen - it's difficult not to begin making up a little story about them!
Building a snowman or snowman family is quintessentially the purest of acts during the winter months.
I love the clothes, especially the cardigan on the father. A fine family of snowpeople.
What a nice snowman family! Someone had a lot of energy to make so many!!
