The Ice Festival

Here's a couple pictures from this year's Ice Festival. There was a pretty good turnout. Lots of kids out with their parents, shaking off a little cabin fever.

This is an art form that guys like. Why? Two words: power tools...

To be more specific, instead of brushes, these artists use chain saws. Can there be any higher art form? Did not think so...


The Sea Turtle was looking pretty good.

















I have to go back Sunday and see this one finished. The artists starts out with cubes of ice and ends up with perfect spheres to be used as balls for his sculpture.






The dragon guys were shaving down their creation prior to attaching the wings. If you look in the background, Egg Harbor was rolling around carts with complimentary coffee and hot chocolate. I heard plenty of comments that people will eat there when it opens.










Pretty jumping on what normally would be just another dismal February weekend.
