Last night my friend Katie and I drove up to Heber City and Midway to tour the Ice Castle they built there. We're having an unseasonable January, with warmer than normal temperatures, so it's only open this weekend. And apparently everyone in the general vicinity got the memo, because we were there with several thousand of our closest friends.
First we stopped off for dinner at a cafe I like, called The Hub. It's a Western-Style joint, with diner food, and waitresses that call you "Hon". The decor is mostly wood paneling, and clocks made out of tree cuttings, and a collection of redneck baseball caps. What's no to like?
After dinner, we drove over to Soldier Hollow to tour the Castle. The theme was from the movie "Frozen", and they were playing music from the soundtrack. It was really quite beautiful, with all sorts of ice formations and snow.
Queen Elsa and Princess Anna were greeting their subjects and taking photos. I was fortunate to get a picture with them. Which in the eyes of my younger nieces, kind of makes me the coolest Aunt ever.
