The snow sculptures
2017-02-11
The
theme was: Age, wisdom, respect

Me by a snow sculpture. It was very cold that day.

They still were working with the sculptures, but I had to go here this day. I'm glad I did. The next day there was sleet and thaw. On Monday the sculptures were destroyed of thaw. They had to take away them. At least the competition could be done on Saturday while the sculptures still were new.

Some days before the snow sculpture competition, the town workers put out big cubes of snow in town. The participants should make sculptures of these.
