Reef related snow sculptures!!

[Skipponator]

I was going to post this in the lounge, but this is reef related

We got our first snowfall in Minnesota this past weekend, and we got busy! I recruited my mother inlaw, and the two of us transformed a pile of snow into:

We worked off of this:

Hope you all enjoy them, as the local traffic seems to very much enjoy! My wife doesn't care for all of the attention, but at times, it is quite entertaining to see people stop, whip you turns, or back up, or reload a vehicle full of people and see flashes all night. Every plow truck that stops, I wonder which one is going to be the jerk to push it over(that's just me thinking of the Grinch).

It's really cool that both of you did that, but it's terrible that both of you COULD do that! WAY too cold for this guy.

Skip, you and your mother inlaw done a great job! I love it and I can see way people slow down or stop to look at it. What did you use to color the snow? I would think paint would melt it but I could be wrong.

Thank you. We used cheap Wal-Mart spray paint, with exception to the orange and yellow, that was the cheapest Krylon I could get. About $16 for 8 cans of paint. Today it was in the mid to high 40s, it's pretty sad right now, but people still like it. I don't think Dori is going to make it to the morning without tipping over, and Bruce's fin looked like Free Willy's, that likely will fall over.
