Today's Ice Storm

Rochester's weather this weekend was indeed a "wintry mix". This morning, freezing rain became a small ice storm, coating trees, cars, and buildings in a quarter-inch of ice. The pedestrian bridge to campus had a solid inch frozen onto it. Fortunately, I didn't have much more to do this weekend than read and root for the PATRIOTS! My reading over the last week includes 1776, City of God, Ender's Game, and Ender's Shadow. I have one more day of relative freedom before classes start!

Ice storms are beautiful; these photos don't really capture the amazing whiteness of it, but here you go.
