Frost


This kind of frost forms around storm drains when it's very cold.

Great photos!

Love the frost! I am totally into your frozen jeans photo - what fun! May have to try that - but kind of hoping we are out of the super cold weather until next year. :) We have little orange and green blobs under our snow - dog toys - better than animals on sticks?? Who's to say.

Thanks for the comments!

dk, you'll have to take a tour of the storm drains next time the temp dips. (Wind speed might also be a factor. I'm thinking no wind helps the frost form.)

Kris, yeah, I'm hoping that we've seen the last of the sub-zero temps for this season.

I have seen that hideous sight before, and never thought of it as appealing enough to photograph. I suppose that's a good one to show people from warmer states. Good job documenting our suffering here in MN.

Thanks, Neza. I was going to try to take some photos of the melting we had today, but a sick kid kept me inside. Maybe tomorrow.

Have you seen my ice river?

Oh, I see I'm not the only one who took a break from blogging this winter!!

I just sent you an email about Wally's gardens - if you don't get it, let me know - I want your feedback.

Spring is coming...right?
