Valentine's Day & Snow Date

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! I have a day off today and am cooking a special Japanese meal with dessert, while getting a batch of kimchi started. In case you are wondering, the Valentine card above is Joe's handmade card. A surprise!
Last Saturday we had a date with Phil & Judy, meeting up in the big snow country to see MTU snow sculptures. For a change the weather was nice, temps in the 20s and the sun shining.

This year's theme was something about super heros in snow. Lots of comic story heros that Joe needed to explain to the rest of us. Still, as always the details and scales impressed us the same. And it's also fun to watch those college kids play in snow and ice.

Below was our favorite. Minion from "Despicable Me" sitting on a copier... we couldn't figure out how he could be a hero.

We were glad even Ginger could join us for the walk... or being carried in blanket. This was far from an arctic expedition like last year, but a pleasant snow date.
