The ice castle was vandalized Feb. 15 by two kids, according to Pruitt who said said he saw them using golf clubs to destroy the structure that was 10 feet high, 50 feet long and made of about 700 blocks of ice. The ice castle, which took two months to build, was made from ice bricks using shoeboxes and milk jugs filled with water mixed with food coloring. (AP Photo/Gary Pruitt)
