| The leap of Faith |
This year we experienced a massive temperature inversion in the Treasure Valley. For over 3 weeks the average temperature rarely rose above freezing. This made for terrible driving conditions, but created something far more breathtaking than anything I had previously imagined possible.
The sky cleared up one Sunday morning, and whimsically I decided to drive up to the local dam to enjoy the sun in solitude. There I was greeted with an azure spectacle and was mighty happy I brought my camera along.
A friendly couple who came down after seeing me walking on ice, offered to take my picture.

| Limbo - Liquid Water ---> sleet --> Solid Ice |
This probably was one of the most breath taking scenes I have ever witnessed. Coming from a hometown 7 degrees north of the equator it was hard enough finding ice in the freezer, but this was something I never imagined possible.
