Having a strong preference toward the summer months here in New England, I’d rarely call our recent cold snap “beautiful.” However, when I looked outside this afternoon and found the entire shoreline frozen with a perfectly clear sky as its backdrop, it was impossible to resist the urge to grab my camera. So, I suited up, waded through the 2-plus feet of snow, and heading down to the glacier, er, beach. While I’m still attempting return sensation to my extremities and thaw my frozen tear ducts, I think the experience was worthwhile.
