Icy fun

The up side to this, umm, winter weather is all the long, slippery icicles hanging everywhere. The kids love them. They're a bit mysterious as the really long ones remain out of touch.

We brought one in the house this afternoon to check out up close and personal. Oh, the coldness. Oh, the roof sludge they are ingesting.

Later, another icicle made its way into their bath. It was nearly as long as the tub and made for a terrific bathtime science lesson.
