The weather has been extraordinarily warm for the last couple weeks, but it’s finally getting colder. While I’ve enjoyed getting outside to play soccer and other outdoor recreation activities, I’m also looking forward to seeing some ice again. A little snow wouldn’t hurt my feelings either. It’s been a pretty brown winter so far.
In the meantime, here are a few ice photos from a couple weeks ago, just as the last vestiges of ice were disappearing from the edge of a Platte River wetland. Let’s hope they aren’t the last ice photos of the winter…
And before you say it, yes, I recognize the delicious irony of yearning for more winter in this post exactly a week after a post in which I yearned for spring so I could photograph flowers. What I can I say? I like flowers, but I also like ice…
In the meantime, coastal Texans are running their air conditioners and praying that the next front makes it through. When you’re done with your cold air, could you send it southward? We would appreciate it. On the other hand, if you need to keep it for more delicious photos like these, it would be all right.
