ice sculpture festival


This morning we all bundled up and drove to Goshen to check out the Ice Sculpture Festival. Today's event was a live sculpture contest. The boys found it fascinating to watch the sculptors work with chainsaws, dremels, and chisels. Though it was warm enough to be raining instead of snowing, it was still pretty chilly, so we didn't stay a really long time.

After we'd had our fill of ice, we decided to take the boys out to lunch. Their behavior in restaurants has been much improved, and today they were really good. Unfortunately, the restaurant we ended up at was terrible. It was some kind of Amish version of Old Country Buffet, only twenty times suckier than OCB. Yarf! Perhaps having good food and well-behaved children all at once is an impossible dream.

and you know how bad ocb is (actually, i don't think i've ever been to ocb, but i've heard horror stories), so that should give you an idea of how nasty this restaurant was.
