This winter, the snow was deep, and we had a bit of an issue getting in and out, but there is always a plus when dealing with nature. Like this scene from the pond. Yes, there is a pond under that white expanse in front of the aspen trees. They set on the bank, as you can see from my home page. The wind was so fierce out of the northeast that the pond was completely flat and smooth. In fact, if you did not know that there was a pond there, you would have missed it. For once, it was not covered in deer tracks, pheasant tracks or any other kind of tracks. I knew it wouldn’t last, so I took the shot while it was available.
