Flake Out Festival - Wisconsin Dells 2009

This past week has been freezing cold here, in the negative temps, but we braved the cold and slight flurries to hit the Flake Out Festival in the Dells on saturday. What fun! Now saturday is the day that all the carving on the sculptures is being done, so most of the sculptures were in different states of contstruction, I'm hoping to go back this week and see them all finished, there were some pretty cool ones.

Rob, Chris and I bundled up so we'd stay warm and lugged the cameras around checking everything out. They had a guy carving stuff out of blocks of ice, something that I could never do, and a blacksmith set up in a little shack demonstrating how his tools worked.

Although we were freezing, we managed to walk around for quite a while, bought some hot cocoa to warm us up and took a bunch more shots. I'll get some more up soon, but for now, stay warm!
