Walking in a winter wonderland

Winter has come to Fort Drum, New York. It comes, as usual well before the official start date and with a vengeance. The two days prior to the pictures you see below my platoon was outside from sun up in negative twenty degree weather to sundown when we topped off at about seven degrees. WE made the most of it. The pictures you see below are mostly from our mandatory fun day at a ski park not far from base. I neither skied nor snow boarded, as winter sports mostly don't seem to tickle my fancy. BUt I got some great shots. If you play your cards right then someday one of you readers might even be the one who convinces me to go ice skating for the first time. Any takers?
