Since there was not much to do, I bundled up to head out to our garage to attempt to spread some salt on our sidewalks and stairs. I stepped outside and instantly realized the eeriness that surrounded me. No noises. No one to be seen anywhere. As soon as I looked around, I saw the ice that completely covered everything outside. From the power lines, to tree branches, to the gutters to the chain link fence. I had entered an icy wonderland. I immediately pushed salting the sidewalks to the back-burner [which I regretted later] and decided to grab my camera.
This time I ventured out into the yard to take some pictures. I definitely slipped and fell while shooting, but thankfully the camera survived! If we get more ice tonight, I might try some comparison photos tomorrow.
If anyone has to go out in this tonight or tomorrow, please be careful! It is certainly a mess.

Iced over bush in the landscaping |
Grass from the front yard |
Almost looks like the grass is inside of glass |
Icicles hanging from the walkway light |
Branches from the tree in the front yard |
