The (Frozen) morning after

After the rain stopped, and the snow was mostly melted, here is what our yard looked like:

In the words of Little Raven:

"when I get home tonight, can I go skating in in our backyard?"

ummm... I think that once the sun comes out, the ice will be melted.... it might be a little soggy by then!!

Which really was too bad... especially since around the tether ball tree there was a circle of ice. I've never played tether ball on ice skates, but it would have been interesting!!
