Ice sculpture fail December 27 2025. Bullet artifact from World War 1. I was hoping at least it left a good imprint. But barely visible.This was my grandfather  Charles Edward Chrystie's. I cherish it. Years ago when I showed it to a friend he said they were a dime a dozen. He and I are no longer friends.

Got out below at last. Sprinkled Icy Melt hoping the rest of the ground would take the hint. Came back up here and sprinkled Icy Melt on the deck. Then very gingerly checked out the ice sculpture that was started again yesterday. It self destructed quickly but got a photo. which I am sure is blurry LOL
