Skating Pond

The bitter cold weather continues. We hiked down to the river today to see if it was frozen over. It was not. However, we did find this small frozen pond. This is a low area along the river that fills with water whenever the river floods and then remains a small pond for some time. The river flooded right before it turned cold. So, we have a small frozen pond that would be great for skating, except that there is no water underneath this ice and the ice itself is too thin to support much weight. No skating here.
