The Great Wall and other pictures

A couple of weekends ago we went to a cool park in a two twenty minutes south of Nishiokoppe. The town is named Shimokawa and has spawned quite a surprising number of Olympic ski jumpers. The city is also home to the Great Wall Park. As you can see from the photos, there is a large (but yet small) replica of the Great Wall of China encircling the park grounds. It’s built to accommodate foot traffic and we had a lovely time walking the entire length. I’d say it was likely about half a mile or so. Also located in the park is this unusual tower with a city museum at its base.

And here is the wooden rocking horse Aaron made at the Komu workshop a few weekends ago. They have projects each weekend and for a small fee you can join in and make the project-of-the-week.
