On Saturday we went to a Fire and Ice Festival in Mt. Holly, New Jersey.
The Fire part was a Chili contest - the Ice part was an Ice Carving Contest.
The line to test and judge the chili was too long,
and that did not interest us anyway, we went to see the Ice Sculptures.
If they chose to participate, each store along High Street
hired someone to carve a sculpture of their choice, outside their facility.

Suze & Watson entertained us.
It was very crowded but as we walked around, it did not feel crowded.
They also had Fire Engine Rides
Dogsled Demonstrations
Glassblowing
Alpaca's
A Balloon Guy
Cupcake Decorating
and much, much more.
It was nice to bundle up and be outdoors for the day,
we had some snow flurries as well!
