hee hee hee.

The artic blast is making some folks happy. It finally got cold enough here to start harvesting 20" ice from the lake Phalen and building the Winter Carnival Ice Palace. There's a web cam, you can kinda see whats going on here It built totally by volunteers, who have been working into the night.

There're flatbeads of huge blocks, and they use a blowtorch to melt it together. Its going to be one you can actually go inside, which hasnt been the case for several years.
