Ice Storm? No thanks.

Well, it seems most of Massachusetts is frozen solid and in a state of emergency, but somehow we seemed to have dodged Mom Nature's first winter bullet. This image above is from somewhere in Worcester. Check out some of the other crazy shots from around N.E.

Just got a call from a woman in Hawley, Mass. (I guess it's somewhere near Ashfield.) She was supposed to pick up an ice cream cake yesterday. She said it's the worst she's seen in fifty years! Phew, that was close.

Instead of a huge sheet of ice, we got to wake up to a nice little Ansel Adams-ey scene...


We did get our share of rain. Seems the pond is all filled up again.


And there's whitewater on the spillway...


A few more for you...


Enjoy your weekend. And don't forget about this month's ArtWalk Easthampton. Here at Mt. Tom's, it'll be watercolor paintings from local artist, Joyce Yoffa. Stop by and check it out if you can.

Nice shots of frosty Mt. Tom, I noticed it from the highway and thought it looked pretty darn cool...

Nice shots - thanks, Jim! And it's actually Hawley, MA, not Holly. Just west of Ashfield on 116.
