Ice Storm

We had quite the ice storm on the weekend. I woke up Sunday morning to this:


As pretty as it was, one of the trees in my backyard had split in several places, the branches of all the trees were covered with ice and weighed down,  touching the ground. Many people in the city lost power, we were lucky.

It looks very pretty, but must be very bad for the trees, and for all those who have no power, or who need to move over icy streets to get to work. Valerie

That is a very wintry scene.

It is the same here. It looks pretty, but it's damaging. Thankfully, we didn't lose power either till now.

Wow. As scary as an ice storm may be, it does leave behind such behind such wonderful art work.

I'm sorry the trees were damaged. It's really beautiful when the sun shines after an ice storm, isn't it?
