The ice was singing in a deep baritone the other night. Gurgling and moaning the most beautiful sounds. Sort of like humpback whales but deeper and less frequent. It's such a wonderful moment when you step outside and hear that noise in front of you, unexpected and stretching from one side of your world to the other. It sounds as if it's right at your feet and makes you smile automatically and say "Way cool."

  2. Awesome. Winter's pretty cool, you know? This morning it was like walking through six inches of pure white sugar to get to my car -- pretty and magical, all sparkly in the sun.
