Visit the Minnesota Ice Castles at the State Fair. Crawl through tunnels, explore ice mazes, whoosh down ice slides. I selected Feb 13 because it is an off-peak day and admission is $17. Also it is a full moon, with moonrise at 4:30 p.m., sunset at 5:37 p.m. Light reflection off the ice should be amazing.
Buy your ticket online at the website. I plan to arrive before 5 p.m. Tickets have a half-hour time slot for admission, but you can stay as long as you like, until 9 p.m. Afterward people who choose can stop by a nearby establishment for a snack and/or beverage.
Let me know you are coming and when you will arrive. I will set up a meeting spot and keep you posted on details. Dress for the weather.
