The Ice Storm

Well Kristen tagged me so, here goes....
Ever wonder what an ice storm looks like up close? Here are some pics of what we woke up to this morning.
You've got to check this one out up close-go on, click on it. Isn't it amazing? Absolutely beautiful.


This is the best pic I could get of our swingset. Sorry guys, I'm not about to go out in this unless I absolutely have to!

This one is of my favorite tree in our front yard.





Absolutely every single growing thing looks like this.

So Erik spent about 20 minutes trying to get the ice off of the car so he could get to work. Pretty good considering it was completely encased in a half inch thick layer of ice. Our power isn't out-yet. We've still got the night to get through though and it's still coming down.

  1. Cool pictures! We had a little ice storm here, but nothing like that. We only had a quarter inch of ice - just enough to kill yourself in a parking lot. It's certainly fun to see, though.
