Ice Lights

We have had some really wintry weather this year.  Seems like every time we turn around the store shelves are empty of bread, milk and toilet paper...all winter weather necessities.  Of course this is the time of year that unless absolutely necessary, I don't miss work.  That means that when winter weather is in the forecast I do my best to make it to work anyway.  Today was no exception.  Sleet and freezing rain began to fall as I headed to my job.  But thankfully, God was in control and I made it to work with no problems.  I have to say my drive home was gorgeous.  The trees glistened with ice and I wished I had my camera and was able to get some pictures.  Of course by the time I did get home the sun was setting and most of the photo opportunities were gone, but I grabbed the camera anyway and managed to get a couple of shots.  If it weren't for the power outages and unsafe driving conditions, I wouldn't mind getting to see the ice once in a while.  Unfortunately, many people are without power this evening and there are others with broken trees and limbs in their yards and on their homes.
