High of 25

Jack Frost worked his winter magic last night. We woke up to a frozen world. Ice crystals covered every tree branch, every blade of grass. Autumn colors were eclipsed with sparkling white. The final remnants of summer -- a plastic slide, the rope to a swing -- were seized in frozen splendor.

Garry's camera lens captured the beauty of the elements.











Say what you will about sub-freezing temperatures, but I think this wintry display is breathtaking.

Great photos! I love the chain one. Isn't this frost amazing? I couldn't stop remarking about it all day. I think the boys were getting sick of me talking about it :).

Beautiful! I told Jeff as we were driving home from church, "I should take a picture of this!", but all artistic thought were swept aside by the white chili awaiting us in the crockpot at home :) I'm glad you did!
