Frozen Lake
one year ago

Sort of a followup to Catching Air on a Snow Sled, this is another post of pictures from a year ago.

Playing on the lake behind my folks' place in Ohio, Anthony used an old spade as a hockey stick, and a chunk of ice as the puck....

Throwing Rocks
winter version of this

Back to this year's trip and the present, today started warm (10°F / -12°C) and by the evening was almost up to freezing (30°F / -1°C). After my return-flight woes earlier in the week, I'm hoping tomorrow's flight back to Japan (via overnight in San Francisco) is smooth....
