Alice: Look! What's that? Mom: What? Alice: It's so big. Mom: Oh, it's just a pile of snow. Petey: They call it Old Mount Soot. It toms in the parking lot every year wether it snow or not. Alice: Mom can I hold it. Mom: No, its dirty. Petey: On it's icy, begrimed slopes dwell tiny, dirty trolls called the Sooti. They sneak down and carry off unwary bargain-hunting shopper to their doom. Alice: Really? Petey: That's why you find abandoned shopping carts everywhere. Alice: Wow. Nature is so cool. Mom: Look! Here's a cart and somebody's left all their coupons in it!

Fantastic imagination Petey! Snow – something that can look so beautiful on a meadow and so ugly piled up on the street.

You should see the parking-lot snow mountains in Wisconsin. They’re always nasty-gray. (I’m sure there are taller ones in more northerly locations.)

I always knew Petey could “spin a good yarn”, but I think this is his best one yet!
