Hello Minnesota. I went to visit my friend Nick. Meet Nick.
Nick is from Pittsburgh, but moved to Minnesota for his career. Dad asked if anyone told him it's colder there than it is here.... obviously not.
All the lakes freeze over (in a serious way) in the winters. Since there is tons of space, people find stuff to do on these lakes.
This dude was talking about making snow sculptures.
I was so jealous of this snow chair when i saw it....
My butt got wet, but I don't care.
I crouched down so Nick looks more manly. He drives a huge truck, so he likes to act tough.
still in love with this chair.
Smartest thing I did all day, my butt stayed dry.
this is the snow shaving tool they use. i think i could make it myself.
since it's cold there all the time, they flood their parks and make ice rinks for kids to skate on.
just a little hockey game going on. i like it.

just another frozen lake. they're everywhere.
i always refuse to tie my shoes. even when i am specifically told to. but the snow kept getting in there, so i had to give in and take a suggestion.
i think i would like this hobby. but it might get old quickly.
so hansom.
i've taken similar pictures at the beach... so i chuckled a little when i shot this one.
i love this picture.
for not knowing one thing about my camera, nick took a nice shot.
an ice fishing hole. that ice is almost 2' deep. crazy to me.
kinda looks like a thawed lake in this one.
some sort of contraption that signals when a fish has taken the bait...
the guys who made the chair had asked us to come back the next day to see their wolf howling at the moon that they planned on sculpting... here it is.
samsies.
here are some sculptors, packing snow that will set up for the next day of sculpting. i like their style.
now its our turn to make a snow chair.
soon to be...
aalllllmmmoossstttttt.....
so good.
done!
i had a great time in minnesota. it was actually like 40 degrees so my piggie toes didn't fall off!
until next time....
