Last weekend we went to check out Phillips lake, about 20 minutes up the mountain. We found it to be completely frozen still--in fact we saw many crazy people ice fishing. The boys enjoyed shoving the blocks of ice back into the hole and watching it bob up and down. In some places the ice was more than 4 feet deep--we used the boys walking sticks to poke down a hole and couldn't reach the end of the ice. It was a cool experience. Conner & Porter ran all the way to the other side. It started moaning and groaning which was a little scary. It was the ice settling after they let water out of the dam.

In the bottom picture, the dark spots are all people ice fishing. Kind of crazy if you ask me--not my idea of fun.
