What would you do with a refrigerator sized block of ice? What if someone gave you several blocks of theses giant pieces of ice, a chain saw, some carving tools, and a fork lift? I'd probably chip the ice off for margaritas until the ice was gone but some folks would make beautiful works of art out of them. Fairbanks is once again hosting the World Ice Art Championships from now to the end of March. Beck and I went the other night with a group of friends to see the creations and... well... play in the ice park. Sure, we were the adults playing on the kiddie slides but it's a hell of allot of fun sliding down 100 foot long ice slides. I'll try to put some photos of the slides soon.
