We were expecting a lot of snow, so they closed school.
We see a lot of wildlife down the hill in our woods, but this heron (or whatever type of waterfowl) was sitting there so still by the creek, it's the first time we've some any of his kind around here.
Later on that evening we got freezing rain. When I first moved here I thought Ohioans were big wussies for refusing to drive when there was 1/2 an inch of snow, but this freezing rain stuff is bad news.
But it sure is pretty! It rained, and then froze to every surface, and when the sun comes out, it's amazing!
It looks like every single tree is a chandelier! It almost makes the cold worth it.
Except that we still have to go outside sometimes.
And kids stayed home from school for 5 days.
Which means we have to go extra days this summer.
But everyone improved greatly on their Wii skills.
