Hike and bubbles

We have had some really nice days so we went for a hike one morning, it was still a bit cold in the morning, but it was really so nice. That did not keep the water in the lake we hiked to from being frozen. I walked down to the edge and I guessed that it was around 3 inches thick still, but there were patches where you could see it was really thin, and cracking all over. We decided to take the "short cut" it was a really bad idea. But we made it. The picture above is the top of bad hill we climbed. It is hard to tell from the picture how steep it was, but that iron rod that Chad is holding on to was truly needed.
Autumn thought that walking and sliding on the ice was so much fun.
It was like 80 degrees right here in the sun, so we played with the bubbles and had a blast!
