Frosty the Snowman, Salay Style

Brady and Frosty

My college roommate, Brady Salay, always talked about the snowman him and his family would build every year. He raved about how big it would get and how much work he would put into it. I would nod and smile saying “Yea Brady, I’m sure its great” in that ‘wow, you can build a snowman and so can I’ tone. Obviously I was mistaken. As the picture shows, there is absolutely no messing around with Brady and his snowman. I can only imagine how he (and his family) were able to build such a structure. It even made the local news. And if you think that isn’t impressive enough, there are even rumors that say the snowman has saved the lives of hundreds. On January 22, 2009 a plane attempting to land at the Minneapolis airport had a malfuction with its computer systems, forcing the pilots to fly the plane “blind”. Fortunately, the white glow of the snowman was large enough to be seen from the sky and the plane landed problem free. So Brady, I’m sorry I ever doubted you and please keep this tradition going.
