Snow job

I decided to walk to the Charles St. T stop last night, a nice half hour walk from work. As I came upon the Frog Pond in the Common I saw what looked like ground hugging smoke beyond. It turned out that there were a number of snow making machines set up around the parade grounds throwing gobs of snow up in the air and covering the ground. It was a very pretty sight to see. I wondered if perhaps some movie would be filming there. Otherwise I couldn't imagine why they were doing it. At that time of night it is a popular spot for people to walk their dogs and the dogs were enjoying themselves immensely.
