Mother Nature, 1; Eric, 0

Well Eric finally returned yesterday and arrived home to find that the dock is now in its final resting place for the winter.  In the lake.  While he was gone, it was colder than cold and the lake started to freeze yesterday morning.  Then it snowed.  So he got home and determined that it just wasn't going to happen.  So we're leaving it in.  I think it will be a lovely bench for when we need to take an ice skating break!  So, keep your fingers crossed that she makes it thru the winter and is still usable next summer!  Here are some pics from yesterday too.  DD was pretty excited about the snow and trying out his new shovel.  Milly even came out to frolic in the snow!

  1. Was E cursing himself? I bet he will be if the dock doesn't make it. One benefit of the dock still in is you got yourself one pretty picture!

  2. Oh My GOSH!!! I can't believe it's that cold there! We are freezing here and it's in the upper 70's. We keep dressing like we are about to freeze to death, lol! That's pretty cool that you get to ice skate! Do you mind if I add your blog to my blogroll?

  3. It sounds like a lot of people got skunked hunting. You guys have more snow than we do, it keeps melting. Yesterday it snowed up here and covered the thin layer of ice that we have but then today the snow was gone.
