and collecting water from the downspout?!

We've been home from California for a week now and though we miss the warm weather and the beach, the weather here has been beautiful (well, beautiful for ND in February!) the past couple of days, too. Yesterday, L and I got out to enjoy it (and later she and D made a snowman). She didn't seem to mind that the 'sand castles' were made out of snow or that the water came from the downspout (you know, as opposed to the ocean). I think this girl would live outside if I'd let her!
