Snowman......No Snow Woman!
The Worlds Largest Snowman, or well should I say Snow Woman!
""BETHEL, MAINE – The good people of Bethel have officially broken the world record for the largest snowman, previously held by them, by 9 feet. Angus, King of the Mountain was replaced in the record books by a woman named Olympia SnowWoman who weighs in at 13,000,000 lbs. of snow. 5 foot wreaths were used for eyes, 16 skis for eyelashes, 130 ft. scarf, 30 ft. spruce trees for arms and 2,000 ft. of rope for hair.
It was a whole community effort with even the local kids pitching in. Elementary school children made the "carrot" nose made of muslin, chicken wire & wood frame. The Mt. Valley Middle School in Mexico (Mexico, Maine, that is) students painted a 48 ft. circumference fleece hat. And the Mahoosuc Kids Association painted 5 red auto tires that are used for lips. ""

If you've read Calvin and Hobbes, Calvin made an anatomically correct snowman and his mom got mad at him. I think he even made snow-women. He seemed to always be up to that kind of stuff.
Cool snowman though. It'll be a sad day when spring comes.
LOL that is awesome! Though, I can't see the arms in any of the pictures.
There was one picture with its arms but it kept messing up I will try again later tonight.
