The Big Chill

Drove by the local High School today and, unlike where I come from, despite the fact that there's 6" of snow on the ground and temps dipped to below zero overnight, school was actually still in session. Ha! What a novel idea (said with a slight bit of sarcasm).

Tales From a Reliable Source

Before the thaw of spring, everyone gathered at the river for the annual community event, ice cutting day! That's when the men used special ice cutting tools to cut through the 2-3 feet of ice thickness. A special lunch was provided by the ladies. At the end of the day, each family took home a large chunk of the Sheyenne River for their underground 'refrigeration' that lastest well into summer.

Winter Lois Lane

Notice 'the wash' at the bottom of the hill that I've mentioned before. In summer downpours, the water fills in and crosses the road there bringing with it a lot of sand. Makes getting home rather interesting sometimes.

The Mighty Redwoods

Yes, it's impossible to convey the immensity in a photograph...

The redwoods, once seen, leave a mark that stays with you always. No one has ever successfully photographed a redwood tree. ~John Steinbeck
