The shimmering, delicate surface of crusty ice on pristine New York City puddles this morning constitutes, as far as I know, the first ice of the 2008 Winter (exactly one month before it technically begins). with that in mind, the passionate people at IceSculptureWorld.com have a U.S.-centric list of the Top 200 Ice Sculpture Companies [...]
