Ice Covers Everything

We had a little sprinkle last night and then, when the temperatures dropped, everything froze. This morning we woke to the most beautiful crystal landscape. My pictures don't do it any justice.



Every wire on the back pasture fence was covered with ice,



 
not to be outdone by the grass. Every blade, on the entire property, was encased with ice. Ice also enveloped the trees, shrubs, buildings and power lines. I haven't been able to decide what is the most beautiful.
 
The children were a bit disappointed because they wanted to use their sleds on the ice. They managed to overcome their disappointment and have some fun on the slippery, icy slide.
