We got an email from our daughter Caitlin, who attends Truman State University in Missouri. She included some photos of the ice in her area.
While she is hurting from a fall on the ice yesterday, she is making it to class and took these photos today. Fortunately, the ice in Northeastern Missouri has not been as bad as it has been further south. Caitlin says that the sun managed to come out and melt things just a bit.
Caitlin tells us that when you shake the fir trees the iced needles sound like wind chimes.
Two of Caitlin's stuffed animals, Tipsy and Snibbly, have their own blog. Mostly it is about life at college with Caitlin. They are currently in a puzzelment about the ice.
My worry has been relieved! I need chocolate to help me recover. (Don't you love the process of rationalization!) The chocolate wrapper says "Send a love letter today." I should send one to Caitlin - Mom loves you, hopes you feel better, and hopes you don't fall again. Maybe I should have another piece of chocolate in sympathy for her pain. (Rationalization again.)

Oh my heavens! What a nasty mess that must have been. That's way too cold for me!
What beauty and danger together. I'm glad her fall wasn't serious, and that she thought to take these beautiful pictures.
Yes, I think two chocolates after that worry time. =)
