Igloo!

We have 18" of wet snow, which makes great raw material for an igloo. We used a recycling bin to make the blocks, and packed in snow around them. Here is a picture of the first two courses being worked on by our younger boys...

Two more layers of blocks finished it out. We covered it with snow and smoothed it both inside and out.
