Lit Up
For my final posts of Winterlude, I'm showing some of the ice sculptures in Confederation Park lit up in the early evening. I have more of them tomorrow.
Lovely! We went to see the lighted sculptures tonight at the Ice Park here. Hopefully I'll get some organized tomorrow. I'll bet some of the same carvers are here that were at Wintrrlude. There were last year.
You saved the best series for last, William. Enjoyed these much. And I just have to remark, on seeing the Mexican flag, that I am appalled by the political rhetoric in my US at present. Personally, I consider Mexican people to be my neighbors, and I deplore their scape goating. Thanks for letting me say that
the added light and color is nice.

Like the starlet said while being made up for her role: A little color, especially in the cheeks, is always a good thing.
