Good Times!!




Cold weather, great helpers, an awesome wife....I have to be the luckiest guy in the world at this moment.

Last week channel 13 came up, today channel 4, tomorrow channel 5, next week channel 2. My theory is this...anyone can be on the news. You just have to do something crazy and do it in January...cause there ain't a lot of news happening now..apparently. Regardless, we're so grateful for the great free press that we're getting (just for the record).

As for the pictures:

The first one...a picture of one of the many bizarre formations that I encounter daily.



The second one was taken from the West tower looking East at the full moon (didn't do it justice...at all. Use your imagination).

The third one....people ask me how I get to the top to put up more icicles. This is a picture inside the biggest tower showing one of the stairways I build in so I can get up there. The stairs and scaffolding has to be rebuilt or added on to every day or two...lots of hours.

I had a great time this evening meeting and visiting with folk from all over (from Heber to San Francisco). We have lots of people rolling in from the Sundance Film Festival. It's way fun but I don't get any work done so that's why I'm going back out to work after this entry (I'll be out there until, I don't know, maybe 3 or 4 am. I should try to get at least a few hours of sleep so I'm somewhat coherent when Jed Boal from KSL TV gets here.

  1. Thank you so much for building this. I am in LOVE with all things ice and so for my birthday my friends and husband too me here. I was actually the one talking to you as you were building right around closing time last night. Anyway, it's beautiful and I just wanted to say THANKS. It made for an excellent birthday and I'm coming back next week during the day to take some pics. You have created something truly beautiful.

  2. I just saw a news article about your ice castles, and I just wanted to say how awesome it is! I live in Edmonton Alberta and I'm pretty sick of the winter and all the bad weather news - it's nice to see something creative like this. =) Kudos to you!
