What a trip this was!!!
Altho...
There was way less snow than here at home...
But....
Boy oh Boy...
The ice mountains were..
AWESOME!!!
From the top...
Where I was standing...
Down to the frozen lake...
Had to be at least 15 feet...
We have never seen it that high before....
The waves and the wind must have been incredible....
Would have been unbelievable to be there for that!
But...
Scary too!♥
Hope you all had a great day....
We had a lovely lunch....and some thrift shopping!
Also took 4 bags to donate....always makes us feel better when we do that♥
We could see the moon on our drive home....at 3pm!!
This was the actual colour of the sky...
HONEST!!
Enjoy the rest of your evening...
Cheers! :o)

I never understood why you didn't go to the cottage all year long... Now I get it!
ReplyDeleteSee....it is a 3 season cottage....just perfect for us!♥️
DeleteI love the lake shore in the winter. Constantly changing and always beautiful even in the throes of winter.
ReplyDeleteLake Ontario doesn't freeze quite like Lake Erie does, but I still find it amazing.
I suppose and insulated cottage with a roaring fire, plenty of hot drinks, and blankets piled high might be an interesting bucket-list kind of experience.
We have spent many an evening just like that,Martha....
DeleteBut....we know when to close her down....always a sad day though:o(
It was incredibly beautiful....and no darn wind!
It looks amazingly beautiful there on the lake with all the ice on it. It looks like the waves just froze in place. Can you walk on them? I love the photo of the shell with a bit of snow in it. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteI was right up on top of them!
DeleteThe pictures don't do it justice!
It was really high!
Look just a little cold and wintry down there!
ReplyDeleteActually....it wasn't that cold....and there was no wind!
DeleteBeautiful photos and your header photo is awesome . I love the way the ice forms on things . Warming up for the weekend and rain in the forecast gona be a sloppy mess out there I think . Thanks for sharing . Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteThanks Elaine.....
DeleteWe will see what the weekend brings....
Oh, these are awesome photos, Linda. It looks like you own a little piece of paradise there.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Deb....we are very fortunate!
DeleteThat is some amazing ice! I just love how the moving water freezes into such beautiful sculptures!
ReplyDeleteI gathered a thrift store bag today, too. Need to do more and probably will before I take it there.
Hope Florida is warm for you! At least you know you won't have ice mountains! ha.
It is really hard to imagine....unless you are actually there...
DeleteNo......no ice mountains in Florida.......please!
Awesome ice formations!! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThan you.....thank you very much!
DeleteI've never seen anything like that. I'm in awe. That's what I call breathtaking.
ReplyDeleteGuess that's why Lake Erie is one of the 5 Great Lakes!
DeleteIt is awesome, eh Wanda?
Wow, really great ice!!! Thanks for sharing your blog.
ReplyDeleteCheri
Welcome Cheri......enjoy !
DeleteI am suddenly freezing!!!!
ReplyDeletexo Kris
Ha ha ha!
DeleteWelcome to my world!
How are you?
Your pictures today are stunning, I know that I always love your photos, but these really are wonderful Linda. The way that the lake has frozen is amazing, it looks as though it has just been stopped in time. Thank you for sharing these. Oh, love the deluge of you and your boyfriend and the moon picture too. Looking forward to seeing what you got at the thrift shop! xx
ReplyDeleteYes.....like waves in the air!
DeleteWe were on top....and it was surreal....one spring, we could actually hear the ice cracking underneath...hope the ice will be GONE,when we return from Florida!
Temps are rising today....and tons of rain expected.....crazeeeee weather!
Just realised my comment says deluge for some reason, it should say selfie!!! xx
DeleteI wasn't quite sure what you meant Amy....I kind of thought...really??? a deluge???
DeleteNo matter....you came back to explain!
For some reason when I reply on hubbys tablet it likes to throw random words in sometimes!! xx
DeleteLook at that ice! I used to see that on the US side of the lake sometimes too. Brrr, stay warm!
ReplyDeleteWill do...temps a bit milder today...and then rain....:o(
DeleteBRRRR!! It looks so cold...just about as cold here, without the frozen lake.
ReplyDeleteLove the scenery though. Stay warm my friend. They are having a cold snap to the south as well!
Hopefully they will "SNAP" out of it...before we get there!
Deletebeautiful photo,s before we sold the house and moved here I looked at this kind of view all winter, I never tired of it,
ReplyDeleteThat's for sure, Laurie....so beautiful♥
DeleteI remember commenting on these photos but don't see it anywhere ... is it all in my mind? did it vanish into the Polar Vortex?
ReplyDeleteLove the icy photos and the shell and rocks.
I'm off to find my mind ... it must be wandering somewhere :)
If you find yours....ask it if it has seen mine?! hahaha!
DeleteFantastic photos Linda, wow that ice is thick! I hear Niagara Falls froze too.
ReplyDeleteSounds like our weather is about to swop. You get rain and we get colder.. but not that cold I hope!
Yes...they are saying it is incredible down there....I have been once, and the rain was melting as it fell!
DeleteQuite a spectacle...to be sure!
But...you did have one sunny day in there!
We have had non-stop snow for over 2 weeks....ENOUGH!!
beautiful pictures Ms, Linda ....love that you have a cottage something I'd love to have ..hmm one day perhaps! you are a beautiful woman too and you and your boyfriend look fantastic! Enjoy the weekend ...the weather is warming up around here for today ...I think in the winter I get my weather info as a need to know and I rather not know! LOL! Stay warm! Marisa
