My wife, daughter , son in law , their three kids ( known to the wife and I as grandchildren) made the 2 1/2 hour driver to Saranac Lake, NY today for the last day of their winter carnival which included an ice castle that never ceases to amaze me . What they can build with chunks of ice and mortar made form snow and water ( the technical term is slush, LOL) . Huge castel, rooms, a maze and dinosaur sculptures which were a big hit with the youngest. It involved a lot of walking but there is something I can't describe which makes "outdoors" tired so pleasant.
