Building An Ice Castle
Today I am going to share something really special about where I live. Wilmington
NY is part of the high peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains. I am lucky to live in a place that people flock to at all times of the year except April to recreate. So I want to share with you a long standing tradition of Saranac Lake. The Village of Saranac Lake builds an ice castle to celebrate Winter Carnival. Winter Carnival is a two week event full of fun of activities unique to a winter community.A Woman's frying pan toss is just one example. As I go about my day job, more about that later, I have had the pleasure of watching the ice castle being built in Saranac Lake. The process takes several days, many men and women, moving equipment and ice cut fresh from Lake Flower.
This year the Carnival theme is "Pirates." I will keep you posted and post a completed picture of the ice castle.
