However, this time I noticed one … hopping on the ground toward a water pool in the aviary. He surprised me by dunking his entire head in the water” before coming up shaking.
Ohio Man Honors Fallen Soldiers With Snow Sculpture
Awesome!
An Ohio man honored our fallen soldiers with his annual snow sculpture: a 14 foot bald eagle, with an American flag hung on its back. Here’s the story:
Roger L. Pugh says every year he makes some sort of snow sculpture, but this year he decided to take it to the next level and turn it into a tribute to fallen soldiers. He says he worked on it a little each night after work, and he’s happy with how it turned out: a bald eagle wrapped in the American flag, with a grave with boots and a wooden gun and helmet in front.
“It’s a tribute to our fallen soldiers, the ones that covered my back and taking care of my butt for a lot of years,” Pugh said. “If it can put a smile on somebody’s face, or make them think about our soldiers, hey, mission accomplished.”
Kinda puts your measly 5 foot snowman to shame, huh?
