I found out there are a lot more international users here than I originally thought
!!! My neighbors and I did the weirdest, and really memorable, things down at the end of our cul de sac too! I noticed that the snow mounds have gotten smaller as I've gotten older too. In recent years my hometown hasn't gotten as much snow as it used to it's gotten 10x colder though. 60-70inches annually is still a lot but man... those winters where we got upwards of 90inches were the best.
ah... now I really wanna go play in the snow but all the snow where I live has melted
