First stop: buying one warm, cinnamon-sugary elephant's ear to share. Yum! (son G reflected in the glass - can you see him drooling with anticipation?!)
Downhill skiier.
I've named this one: "Heads at Railing". :-)

Ice Festival
We had perfect weather for the ice festival this year! Below freezing (for the ice), but not below zero (for us!), and no wind. They did something new this year and rather than have professional teams come from foreign countries, they had only local college teams participate. It was really neat to see groups of college students working on different ice sculptures. One of the sculptors we knew from church.

What a neat festival. The ice sculptures look wonderful! And, I've never seen an elephant's ear before... is it kind of like a funnel cake but solid???
ReplyDeleteYes, kindof. It's a light, airy, doughy thing, with your choice of topping. And it's flat, obviously, rather than funnel shaped. I had never heard of them before moving here either, but here they are all the rage at carnivals and festivals!
ReplyDeletei'm so sad we didn't make it to the festival this year! enjoyed the pictures and would have loved to have had a warm elephant ear. YUM!
