Ice Storm Pics

Here are a few photos of the ice around the OAH. The first is of the ice on the north side of our picket fence.

This is the pear tree.

Here's hubby explaining the concept of "sleet" to the little one.


Here in southern Oklahoma, we get more ice than snow. Schools (including the university) were closed for the past two days because driving on an inch of ice is not easy. Our local news station said some areas were reporting close to 3" of ice! Crazy stuff. Here at the OAH we had around an inch of ice/sleet...which turned into straight ice yesterday after a bit more freezing rain fell on top of everything.
