This morning a fellow-photographer, Wendi McCallum, and I braved the cold and wind to shoot some snow. We went to Minard Mills Park and captured these:

The falls over the dam were mostly frozen --- mostly.

The action of the current shaped these mini- icebergs into circles. They were trapped in this eddy.

A magnificent sycamore!

Photographers will do anything for a shot!

We were fascinated by the shapes of the marsh grass and their shadows.

When we got back, Wendi's husband, Dave, had put together a most welcome venison stew with hot coffee which warmed us significantly. After lunch, Dave drove me to a back field where I took a picture of part of an old fence.

When I got home, James called to say he was taking the kids sledding and did I want to go. So I grabbed my camera to capture the fun.

The kid and the kids!

Charis and friend, Tori!

What happens when you drag a foot.

Lydia took a little convincing. The hill was scarey.

But she finally took the lunge! Then she didn't want to quit.

The Daddy ski lift!

A fun way to spend a winter day. I came home and did the post while listening to Celtic Thunder Radio on Pandora. Another storm is on the way. Wind chills are supposed to be horrific, but I might have to venture out. Nothing like fresh snow to transform the world.
