When it comes to snow, you've GOTTA enjoy it somehow or it'll drive you nuts!

Like playing with and walking your dog, building a snowperson or animal, building forts and having a snowball fight, and going sledding, tobogganing, snowshoeing, Nordic skiing, alpine skiing, and snowboarding.

Or this: {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

Fun in the snow: In Westlake, Ohio, homeowner Lonnie King used the two-foot snow for a little fun. He dug this remarkable maze and then let out his bulldog with the task of finding him, his wife and his daughter

My dad used to ice over our backyard so we always had an ice rink during winter.

How cool.. Literally

We used to use loaf pans to make igloo blocks. We made some really elaborate ones and had a lot of fun. People weren't afraid of the weather like they are today - now even a sprinkle of rain and the weather leads with STORM TEAM ALERT !

ITA; it's ridiculous. But smart to always respect Mother Nature.

Depending on the size of the family's Bulldog (from smaller to taller: French, English, American), it could also be kind of a "Where's Waldo" in that pic from above. Smiley Wink

Which the dad took with a drone, BTW; totally rad.
