Trees of Glass
On the drive home this past Monday, we saw a rather stunning side-effect still lingering in the aftermath of the ice storm. Tree after tree seemed to be sculpted from glass. Any tree that didn't have any leaves left was basically encased in a thin layer of ice. Even the dead grasses on the ground were individually frozen.
The picture above doesn't do it justice, as I was taking it from a moving car and trying to track along with the forward motion of the car to keep it focused. This was probably my most effective attempt.

Yeah! Seen that, it's really beautiful. When it's not pulling down power lines, that is.
When I moved to Indiana (further north), I figured they had ice storms there too, but their reaciton was, "Huh?"
Actually, that was their reaction to a lot of things...
