snow

It's been a bit chilly at Honeymoon Lake. It was down to 16 degrees F on Sunday. That's as cold as I have ever seen it here around Puget Sound. I've seen it this cold before, but not often. The lake froze over which is not something I've seen. Monday night Robby and Hannah came over and Robby skipped stones across the ice. Skipping rocks across a frozen lake makes the neatest sound. There is a funny reverb that is kind of like hitting a metal tube. It's hard to describe. The next time you come across a frozen lake, skip some stones across it. Trust me on this. Robby was able to get a stone all the way across the lake.

Tuesday morning it snowed covering the lake with white. We only had a little less than 2 inches and it's gone now. The rain is back and the ice has melted.
