Lake Erie

Over the weekend, we drove up to Lake Erie to see it while it was still frozen. Lake Erie is HUGE, it functions more like a sea with waves and everything, so it's pretty incredible that it can freeze. We had a great afternoon looking at the frozen lake and seeing the sights at Presque Isle.

Gotta love lighthouses:

Afterwards, we had some good chinese food in Erie- a rare find! In all, a good weekend.

That looks like so much fun. We had some snow again today but it was nothing like the storm we had in December.

Looks cold. I can't wait for warmer weather. Some would contend that us Las Vegas are already there. I love that light house pic. Very pretty.

There are some really beautiful pictures of the lake there. It looks cold, but lovely... then again I am from Idaho... :)

It actually wasn't that cold that day- 30 degrees is warm! And it's warmed up a lot since. It's funny how the pics look deceptively colder because they are so blue.
