If you guessed, "ICE!!!" Ding ding ding!!! We have a winner!!!

I went to the DFW area this past weekend-ish. When the high decided to be below freezing. Mother. Of. Pearl. It was COLD!!! Went out to K's property on a beautiful blue sky 'bout freezing day. There's a small creek that runs through it that happened to be completely frozen and the ice made some AWESOME patterns. I can't really figure how they formed that way, though I have a few ideas. Theories? Anyone? Anyone?

ANYWAY. Sadly, there is no cash prize for guessing correctly. You just get to continue reading...if you're not completely annoyed, that is. Was that fun? Want to play again? Really? Okay! Look below!


Do you know what you're looking at?
Stare really hard, make a guess, then read below.

Okay. There was this dog wandering on the property and she just decided to walk on the ice like it was no big deal. Only, it cracked and broke under her weight. No biggie. Because all the water had evaporated under the top layer of ice. This is a five inches of water deep creek, y'all. SO. You're looking in between the broken sections of ice. Towards the top of the picture is the top layer of ice. Below that (the in focus part of the picture) is what was under the intact ice - where water should have been, but had mostly evaporated and ice chips remained, as well as ground, and a baby tree stump in the right of the frame. And at the bottom of the frame, taking up 1/2 of the picture, is the fallen piece of ice on the ground. Make sense? No? Read again. Yes? Yay! Kind of abstract, right? Weird.

Enough of this cold. I want my 70 degrees back. Jesus can keep the humidity, though.
