Congrats, Cara. That sure is some ice sculpture, Middie. Have you ever thought about selling your work? I'm sure you'd be a great success!
By the way, I'm not sure how these things are done, but do you need some part-time help here? I keep dropping in and using the facilities but I haven't once done anything like tidying up. Made the odd cocktail every now and then, but that's about all. Oh, and some guacamole once, but that hardly counts as hard work. I'd have no idea where to go to get maple syrup, but I can bring over some olive oil, etc. and generally help out.
