24 Hour Snow Sculpture Competition
As you may know, Feb Fest is now well underway. This evening we strolled on down to Market Square to take in the late performance by the Flying Canucks, but sadly the show did not last long, and it was over before we arrived. We decided to salvage the trip by walking around to survey [...]
