Monday, February 6

Today was not a big picture day. Jeanne and I drove in for the morning coffee at DQ. Then we headed on the Virginia. This is a town about 1 hour drive away. We had lunch at the Village Inn. Their tomato basil soup was very good. Then we walked over to the mall and wandered around. It was fun exploring a different area. Then back to Ely. We made a few stops in town. One of which was at the park to see the snow sculptures one last time. There had been a few that weren't finished yesterday. They were finished but also we saw that many of them are now starting to fall apart because it is so warm.

I did put together a slide show of the snow sculptures. If you are interested go to: https://picasaweb.google.com/barbara.d.walker/ElyWinterFestivalIceSculptures2012

I organized them by sculpture. Showing the progress of each one. It was fun looking at them all.

It was a fun day.

Delicious dinner of veal cutlets, pasta, green beans, shrimp cocktail, jello and dinner rolls. Yummy. I forgot to take a picture - sorry.

Jeanne and I worked on a puzzle. Our 3rd one. Then just before going to bed we bundled up and walked down to the lake to look at the full moon and to look at the house all lit up. It was magical. Unfortunately this is a case of not having the right camera. Even though it was so bright out we did not need flash lights - it was too dark for a picture. This picture was totally dark until I did an auto correct. Now it just looks grainy, but you get the idea.

Looking at the Christmas lights. Jeanne plugged them in - just for me.

Full moon through the trees.

Well worth getting bundled up.
