If you've been keeping up with our daily photos here on the Pasty Cam, you know we've gotten quite a bit of snow this winter and still have many inches on the ground now. So even though it is technically springtime, us Yoopers really don't get to enjoy spring activities, like getting outside and playing on the swing set. That is, unless you're really ambitious, like the Dad in today's photos.

Mark Klein wanted to take his little ones out for some fun on the swing in their backyard and since we still have a good ground cover of snow here in the Copper Country, he had to remove a bit of snow to make that happen. Even though you can't quite read the numbers on the tape measure he's holding, that trench he dug is 42 inches deep. A little bit (or a lot) of snow wasn't going to get in the way of some fun in the sunshine for their father/son playground fun. Now that is a dedicated Daddy!

Thanks to Mark's wife, Annie, for being on hand to capture this swinging day for us all to enjoy!

That's dedication! Good Dad!

Now that is a light at the end of the snow tunnel and the future's so bright, they have to wear shades. Good pics!

What a nice dad :-)

Way to go Dad!!!! I'll bet the satisfaction gained outweighed the effort required by far.

I agree, Duane!

I wished I could play in the snow.
