Michigan Tech Winter Carnival

Last Friday a group of us headed up to Michigan Tech for the annual Winter Carnival to view the results of the snow/ice sculpture competition. It was a "balmy" 35 degrees and sunny! The theme was space.
























This was one of my favorites. It was hard to be original with a space theme so it was a welcome change to see the barn and silo. The whole scene showed a farm and a crashed spacecraft in the field.





















This one was good too--50 years of space history.








I don't know how they make the ice chains--I love those.

Wow! These are so cool! I loved the chains too and found them very fascinating! Unfortunately, a quick google search didn't provide an insight as to how they are made... Thanks for sharing! -Jamie
