Stunning beauty Kathy! How do the trees survive such a brutal winter with ice? #10570960

They definitely bend under the weight of the ice "tubes" that form over the branches. It gives the trees the most fascinating forms. You'll all have to visit Terry's Gallery to get her take on our visit. #10571123
