Red of Winter

Red of Winter

One of five winning Winter Stations Design submissions out of just under 200 entries (incorporating an existing lifeguard stand) produced by over 400 people from 36 countries around the world.  The entry is called, Sling Swing and was created by Ed Butler, Dan Wiltshire & Frances McGeown.  You can actually swing on the slings.  I arrived just before sunrise and had the installation and the cold beach to myself (and yes, I did go for a swing).

Black Ice

Black Ice

I finally ventured down to the lake to see what "ice monsters" had formed.  It was chilly but beautiful and worth the trip.

Snow Day

Snow Day

Thanks to 8-9 inches of fresh snow, slippery conditions on the Parkway, and a near full moon, my 30 minute morning commute extended to 2 hours today.  Thankfully, the return trip home was less eventful.
