yesterday was the best week i ever had

r.i.p. art shanties!!
saturday was full of it. my family came out, the sun was all around, the ice below and the bottoms up.
to celebrate, we ice skated around shantyland for hours as the sun was setting. it was a most emotional experience.
imagine skating with this montage

but on top of a beautiful, frozen, minnesota lake. (wind included)

we skated right out there


also, we de-installed our poor shanty all day sunday.
emily is in distress. this one's for gail:

what are we going to do with ourselves now?
