In celebration of Alaska's Iditarod (a 1000 mile dog driven race), they have a two to three week festival called "Fur Rondy" otherwise known as Fur Rendevous. In Anchorage they had the ceremonial start of the Iditarod as well as a carnival, pony rides, helicopter rides, music, food, ice bowling, and snow/ice sculptures. Ken and I were both working during the ceremonial start- so we didn't get to see the mushers with their sled dog teams, but we were able to go see the snow/ice sculptures... so here are a few of those. Every year I am so amazed at people's talented abilities with carving! I think these pictures will also help my mom cool off in her Arizona heat (not that it's super hot right now)... but still.
This one's for you Aimes...
Ice Age...
This one was my favorite by far!
