We didn't know what to expect with the ICE show. Everyone was given a thick parka coat to wear in the 9 degree building. Info from the shows sight is below. The ice carvings were really great.
ICE! is back for the 2022 Holiday season in Nashville! This wonderful attraction has been a tradition at Gaylord Opryland since 2001, but during 2020 and 2021 it was temporarily replaced with alternative activities due to Covid. The magnificent scenes are carved from over 2 million pounds of ice by a team of 40 artisans who fly in all the way from Harbin, China!
A special thank you to Roxanne of pink4roxy2, www.flickr.com/photos/30738279@N02/, for sending us this fabulous Rudolph cutter! We now feel that our Christmas coookie cutter collection is complete (who are we kidding?). Honestly, this is our all time favourite Christmas cutter. We fell in love with it a year ago when we saw Roxanne's photo, www.flickr.com/photos/30738279@N02/4207823697/.
Roxanne - thanks again as you made our Christmas that more special, Merry Christmas!!!
This is a sample of the cookies that all of our family, friends, and co-workers are receiving as gifts this Christmas from us!
I went to add this image to the pool Altered Signs, and saw another one there just like it. Curious, I did a general search for images titled Rudolph Crossing. I stopped at the first 10! Evidently Rudolph does a LOT of crossing. Makes me smile.

Rudolph Pabus Cleveringa sprak op 26 november 1940 zijn beroemde rede uit aan de Leidse universiteit, waarin hij stelling nam tegen het ontslag van zijn Joodse collega's.
Cleveringa werd in 1894 geboren in Appingedam.
De onthulling werd verricht door prof. mr. C.J.J.M. Stolker, tot voor kort rector magnificus van de Universiteit Leiden, en Sebastiaan ten Kate, de achterkleinzoon van Cleveringa. Het beeld is gemaakt door Elise d’Hont en werd vorig jaar november reeds geplaatst.
Ik stond 2de rang zoals u kunt zien.

A rena Rudolph surgiu em 1939, quando a cadeia de lojas Montgomery Ward company, com sede em Chicago, pediu ao seu empregado Robert L. May para criar uma história de Natal para ser oferecida aos seus clientes.
Antes de se chegar ao nome de Rudolph, pensou-se em Rollo e Reginald, mas estes dois foram rejeitados.
A história de Rudolph foi escrita em verso e conforme May ia criando esses versos, testava-os na sua filha de 4 anos, Barbara. Apesar de Barabara adorar a história, o patrão de May ficou preocupado com o facto da rena ter um nariz vermelho, já que esta é uma figura por vezes associada à bebida e aos alcoólicos, não lhe parecendo a melhor base para uma história infantil. Para resolver esse problema, May levou Denver Gillen, um amigo do departamneto de arte da Montgomery Ward, ao jardim zoológico "Lincoln Park Zoo", para este fazer um esboço de Rudolph. O desenho de Gillen de uma rena com um nariz vermelho brilhante colocou um ponto final na hesitação dos patrões de May e a história foi finalmente aprovada.
Nó período pós-guerra, a procura da figura de Rudoph foi enorme, mas como May tinha criado a história enquanto empregado de Montgomery Ward, era esta que detinha os direitos de autor e May não recebia royalties, assim este não participava nos lucros produzidos pela sua criação.
Contudo, May estava bastante endividado devido à doença terminal de sua mulher, tendo, finalmente, conseguido convencer Sewell Avery, presidente da Montgomery Ward, a transferir os direitos de autor para ele em Janeiro de 1947. Na posse dos direitos de autor, May ficou com uma estabilidade financeira assegurada. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" foi publicado para comercialização em 1947 e foi apresentada em teatros nos anos que se seguiram.
Rudolph deu o seu grande passo para a fama, quando o cunhado de May, o compositor Johnny Marks, criou a letra e a música para uma canção sobre Rudolph. A versão musical de "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" criada por Mark foi, finalmente, gravada por Gene Autry em 1949, tendo vendido só nesse ano 2 milhões de cópias e transformando-se numa das músicas de Natal mais vendidas de todos os tempos.
May despediu-se do seu emprego em 1951 e passou 7 anos a administra a sua criação, passado esse tempo voltou ao Montgomery Ward, onde trabalhou até reformar-se em 1971. May morreu em 1976, tendo vivido uma vida confortável graças aos lucros que obteve com a sua rena.
At first I could not beleive my eyes, I thought I had encountered Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer. Upon further inspection, I realized that in my quest to understanding backlighting, this noble deer found a way to get my attention. Merry Christmas!
Brüderstraße/Scharrenstraße, Berlin Mitte
Das ehemalige Kaufhaus Rudolph Hertzog wurde 1839 als "Manufactur-Waaren-Handlung" in der Breite Straße gegründet. Neben den Kaufhäusern N. Israel und Hermann Gerson zählte es zu den ältesten Kaufhäusern im Berliner Zentrum. Erhalten ist nur der 1908-09 vom Architekten Gustav Hochgürtel errichtete Kaufhausteil Brüderstraße 26 an der Ecke Scharrenstraße. Der viergeschossige massive Baukörper des Warenhauses Hertzog ist sowohl an der dreiachsigen Eingangsfront in der Scharrenstraße als auch an der Brüderstraße durch übergiebelte Risalite in neobarocken, schlossähnlichen Formen gegliedert. Das Erdgeschoss besteht nicht aus einem durchlaufenden Schaufensterband, sondern es ist als Sockelgeschoss mit unterschiedlich breiten Bögen ausgebildet. Das Gebäude wird derzeit aufwendig saniert. In das ehemalige Kaufhaus Hertzog ziehen Büromieter.
A couple of blocks down the street from the tree and bench I posted yesterday, I noticed this lovely tree. It's so cold just about no one has taken their Christmas displays down!
