I'm in!  Yesterday I took my 10-year-old daughter to the Sierra Nevada to
escape barren, snowless Sacramento and to build an igloo.  This was our
first snow-building project and it turned out really "cool".  Once the
igloo was complete we had a late lunch of peanut butter sandwiches inside
the igloo, made some happy snaps of each other with our creation and bade
the igloo a sad farewell before heading back down the mountain.  Little did
she know she was learning a valuable survivial skill if she ever gets
caught in a blizzard in the mountains.
