| An Ice Puddle |

| Icicle making an icicle. |

| Notice how blue the sky was. |
Ice formations coming out of the ground

| This icicle had to be at least 15 ft long if not more |
After the super duper low temps for 24 hours, we decided that there HAD to be some pretty neat icicles in the forest. When we left the house it was 11 degrees out. Ice in all of the creeks and ditches but the roads where all clear. We went to Chapel Hill Falls because it was close to the road and we wouldn't have to hike in the really cold for long. As the waterfall and canyon came into sight, we knew it was going to be a winter wonderland experience. Huge, beautiful icicles every where. Snow all on the rocks at the bottom of the waterfall. There were some really "different" ice formations all along the ground where the icicles were melting. It sure was worth taking a couple of hours out of our day and checking out what the coldest temperatures in the past 20 years in Alabama did to the forest. Gotta love a real winter!
