Frosty and our Christmas lights look beautiful in the snow
Then on January 6th we got 4 more inches of snow before it turned to freezing rain coating the city with 2" of ice.
The icicles were the largest ever seen in Portland
Yum!
Our Leyland Cypress's bowed, but didn't break. Many trees did in the city.
The ice encrusted blue fescue grass
The Red Twig Dogwood
The trees were a beautiful sight with the sun shining on them
The icicle lights became icicles!
Double layer of icicles
Even icicles on the garden table
To walk anywhere outside was a challenge. It was very hard to walk on the ice. Scott took two spills.
On January 8th Scott started shaking the ice off the trees
