That is clever and required patience and talent in a way we don't think of much.

I rather liked the snow sculpture. The stair treads are lovely. Missing being a tree is repeat
The owls may indeed not be what they seem but still serve an imperative function: they remind us to look into the darkness.

I think that snow sculpture speaks to her joy at
Life, her appreciation of the beauty around her, and her ability and motivation to share that with others, especially that child. Such details as the saddle and the horse's hindquarters testify to her skills and powers as an artist .

Also, to me, her making something so remarkable out of snow testifies to her understanding full-well that life and it's many joys can be quite transitory and short-lived , and must be enjoyed while we have them.

We know the child will never forget her horse sculpture.

For some reason, seeing that snow horse sculpture reminded me of your filling your front yard shrubbery with numerous colored lights for Christmastime , which you showed us a few years ago, here. More joy.

Never had that feeling of your brain getting squeezed by blocks of wood?
