International Snow Sculpture Championships

Posted on by Elle L

Breckenridge hosts the International Snow Sculpture Championships. It’s a very short-lived event, and it’s small, but it is amazing.

And I can’t make a trip to Breckenridge
without a visit to Joy of Sox!
I bought a pair of these
(and another pair off “the world’s softest socks)
4 years ago when we were there on vacation.
This is the next pair I would have gotten.
They are my very favorite socks for winter.
I love all the blues with splashes of purple.
Soft and Cozy!		purple and blue mis-matched sox
