A snow house in Jerusalem

Posted on December 16, 2013 | 3 Comments

Elie sent me a photo he made this morning of a snow house in Jerusalem. If you know Jerusalem you know that the houses are built of stone (some of Jerusalem stone). The person building this snow house made it in imitation of the stone houses. It’s always good to have police protection!

    I love modern recreations which have some level of historical accuracy…..now if they would build one out of Herodian size snow stones. Of course, most of it may be melted by now. -T
