Racine Wisconsin Ice Carving Competition Held January 12, 2008

By
Real Estate Agent with Re/Max Newport Realty Corp.

It was a great competition, and is gaining popularity every year. This year was very accomodating to the artists as well as to the sculptures. Beautiful works of ice art lined Main St. in Downtown Racine.

 This sculpture, in front of an Art Gallery and next to a Coffee Shop is still intact since January 12th. Today is January 24 and it has not even begun to melt! Brrrrr

Mary, Kathy , & Gary, We actually have a dozen sculptures throughout downtown. I took the photo as I was driving by, more a statement of the deep freeze we have been experiencing, rather than a promo for my City on Localism. With a little luck it won't get above freezing until I have time to take some more shots.

Is that a sick thought or what? Wait until you see my post on our beautiful marina! It looks a bit different froze over.

Too much snow today to take pictures! It just wouldn't stop! Tomorrow's forecast is predicting temps in the mid-30s. Meltdown!
