Ice floes

We had a record snowfall this winter, over 100"! All that snow landed in the bay, because of the water temperature it didn't melt and it also floats. The tides would break it up and bring it into shore. Some of the massive chunks grew to over 8 feet high! 

We went out in search of them today. We had had 3 very warm days, the first since last fall, so we hoped to still find some. 

We weren't disappointed!!!










We walked out across the ice/snow about 100 yards before we encountered this ocean river. 

These are not rocks under water, it is ice. Really cool stuff to see out there!!

We definitely would be happy to have winters like this every year!!!

Life is Good!
