After the storm

I'm posting this very late but I've got a photographic backlog building up so here you go.

The day after my last post we went out looking at the remains of the ice.  It really is quite fascinating when you've never seen it before.  It looks man made where it's fallen off the trees, Tom said it looked like someone emptied a giant cooler.

And on the pine trees it was really cool.

If you look closely you can see all the striations where the needles were, it's like an ice fossil.

To finish off, here is Rose managing to look like some adorable, model child which she is certainly not.

And look what promise of spring was hiding underneath all the ice.
