We went downtown to get Zach's glasses adjusted after a full-contact basketball game at school on Friday left them a bit (or a lot) crooked – and had no idea it was the ice sculpture day of Winterfest.  The funny thing is that for most of winterfest the ice would have been melting, but this day (and this day alone that week!) it was bitterly cold.  Of course it was packed downtown, and we got to park on the roof of a parking garage, and walk all the way across it since the elevator was broken in the building nearest to our parking spot, and had forgotten (with our mild winter!) that in Minnesota you need hats and gloves and scarves.  So, our tour of the ice sculptures was quick – but our errand to get the glasses adjusted was much more exciting than we had planned.
