3. Team Snowfort

After the snowplow made a huge pile at the end of the street, we’d start digging tunnels and building ramparts. Followed by epic snowball invasions.

[Nittersing]

5. My thought as well!

After the plows went by, we'd build twin forts on either side of the drive... and tunnels if there was that much snow.

14. Team Sled Riding.

I grew up in Chicago not too far from Humboldt Park which had a great sledding hill
where you ended up on the frozen lagoon after going between two huge trees.

[debm55]

15. Thank you very much boonecreek , aka Team Sled Riding for sharing with us. Sounds like fun.

[Goonch]

19. "Bunker Hill".nearby lagoon.

Sledders can also take in lakeside views and enjoy a short walk to the waterfront.

Over on the west side, Humboldt Park boasts a sledding hill of its own known as “Bunker Hill”. Snow lovers can hit the slope and take a scenic stroll around the nearby lagoon.

24. Wonderful , Thank you Goonch. My husband is from Boston. I will have to stop and see it.

[CTyankee]

17. I was a deprived child...snow deprived, that is.

Growing up in Texas I would have LOVED making a snow angel or just having snow at all, esp. at Christmas. I felt deprived...

[debm55]

18. Thank you CTyankee. Can you do it now---get a group together and make snowmen? You are young at heart, A child is in

all of us.

[CTyankee]

25. Probably not at my advanced age. It's OK. I'm good

[debm55]

29. Thank you very much, CTyankee.

[Dorothy V]

20. Team Snowman, sort of. Snow is lacking in the Mojave, but with three tumbleweeds, a can of white spray paint,

and a carrot, one can make a Tumbleweed Man.

[debm55]

22. HAHAHAHAHHHAHAHA. Thank you my dear Dorothy V.

[MustLoveBeagles]

31. Thank you justaprogressive. great Team

[CrispyQ]

27. Team Snowman. ☃️

One snow angel was all it took for me to be over with them, gettin' snow all over your back & down your pants if your shirt & coat hiked up while you were making the wings. Sledding is fun but there weren't a lot of hills in my area.

[debm55]

32. Thank you very much, CrispyQ. I always found Snow angels boring--but that is just me. Thank you Team Snowman

[livetohike]

[debm55]

38. HAHAHAHAHAHAH. Thank you very much, ruralib, aka Team sledding and Team Tree Finding for sharing with us.

[Aristus]

36. Team Snow Fort.

During the Blizzard of 1977, the snow fell so deeply that we were able to construct a snow fort large enough to crawl around inside. We laid some plywood planking over the top, and piled more snow on for insulation. Great place to hang out with friends on a snowy day.

[debm55]

37. That sounds wonderful and very creative. Thank you , Aristus aka Team Snow Fort, for sharing with us.

[snot]

40. Team hot cocoa.

[debm55]

43. HAHHAHAHHAHHHAH, Thank you very much, snot, aka, Team hot cocoa.

[ProfessorGAC]

41. Probably Snowball Fight

I might add building a snow fort.
But, really wintertime was about basketball & bowling, mostly because they were played indoors!

[debm55]

42. Thank you. ProfessorGAC. aka Team Snowball fight, for sharing with us.

[Emile]

[debm55]

46. HAHAHAHAHHAHAH, Thank you very much. Emile aka Team Shoveling, for sharing with us.

[OldBaldy1701E]

47. We so seldom had enough snow for sledding, but we did so when we could.

Being raised out in the country, we did not have others to have snowball fights with.

Fortunately, we had ice and one can sled on ice... it's more like sliding, but it worked.

[debm55]

48. Thank you very much, OldBaldy1701E. Sledding on ice? Must have been a very fast ride.

[OldBaldy1701E]

49. And, out of control as well!

There was no steering when one slid on ice!

(We did not care...).

[debm55]

50. Thank you, OldBaldy1701E, I would have been terrified.
