" Webster, New York, which is located along the shoreline of Lake
Ontario, has been turned into an "ice house."

We are kicking near 90°F here in the desert :-)


I wonder why the house next door isn't covered with ice, too?


I found that curious, too. Maybe the ice house is vacant and unheated?

ahh That's possible. Didn't think of that.

There was a house around here that had sort of an ice sculpture every
year. He built a framework about 15' high and sprayed it with a lawn
sprinkler. It didn't look like anything but a formless tower of ice. I
suppose everybody needs a hobby in the winter.

We got lucky this year and only had a dusting of snow that didn't last
very long, but we did have some below freezing temps for a few days off
and on. We've had a false spring and plants are in mid-bloom, and now
we've had another hard freeze. Guess all the bugs in the garden will
get killed off before real spring shows up. At least I'm hoping that
happens!
