(gp: January 31, 2010)
It's the evening before the start of the Great Gnome-out, and things are literally "a buzz" here on the ice. Gnome watchers, contestants and judges alike were startled this evening when with a sound like de-accelerating jet engines, a new gnome swooped in for a landing leaving a trail of melted ice behind him.
Concerned watchers rushed the ice in the confusion of this new high-speed arrival wanting to know if everything was all right and who this rather daring gnome might be. After event officials cleared the ice, it was clear that more than just one arrival had occurred in the confusion when the head count tallied nine heads! (or hats, or sort of heads...)
Now in the dark, confused officials are scrambling to set up lights, identify the newcomers and get them officially entered in the contest.
Continue to follow this column the next couple of days folks: we've got a lot of gnomes to meet!
