Freeze!

On Saturday afternoon Emily I walked with Banjo to the parkstrip, which is about a 25 minute walk. There was this festival-type thing going on called "Freeze" where people make artwork/sculptures/anything out of snow and ice. We met up with a few of Emily's co-workers once we got there. It was pretty cool. One thing had a bunch of lights over some ice, which was suppose to represent fishing. There were a lot of ice heads on metal sticks. There was a catapult that would launch ice at a tarp. And there was an ampetheature made out of snow that had a fire in the middle. And you had to walk in this little maze on the outside to get in. It was fun, but cold (as you might imagine from the name). Good thing Emily and used our hand and foot warmers (bought in bulk from Costco of course) to stay warm!!!
This in on our way up to the park strip. Yeah, there's a lot of snow on the ground.

Ooohhhhh......ice-heads on pikes!
This is the tarp that the catapult flung blocks of ice at.
This is what I look like after 30 minutes outside. Can anyone say snotcicle?
