: Posing for the perfect picture

: It was freezing up there

: I could not feel my fingers after a while but it was totally worth it!

: This was hardly the first nor the last snowball I threw. My friends were only slightly amused. I just can’t help myself when there’s snow around.

: Hey look! Elk!

: They were completely unfazed by all the people and cars stopping to admire them, including me.

: Another lookout point

: John! Your shadow is blocking Krystal! Move out of the way…

: ….and now we’re undoubtedly laughing at John haha
