Ice
We have been going through what the meteorologists on TV have been referring to as a "cold snap." To me, this is insane coldness that is fraught with peril. However, amid the freezing cold and ice, beauty can be found.

You really can find the positive in just about anything, can't you?! That's truly impressive.
ReplyDeleteI hate this ice coating. Though I do have to say that the ice that started to slide off the railing, but froze again as it had basically fallen off, so it re-froze on a slide angle was slightly amusing until I realized that it had melted enough to slide, but that it was cold enough to re-freeze while in motion bimmed me out again.

bummed, not bimmed. LOL!!
ReplyDeleteThere is so much beauty in nature! Even though it's a dangerous natural phenomena, thanks for taking the photos and sharing what the world likes like from the east coast of the continent.
ReplyDeleteI won't mention our temps ranging from the 70s to the 80s and all the Canadian winter-white legs on prominent display throughout the Valley. Nah, that wouldn't be nice.
