It's Iceberg Season Again in Our Backyard

I've been holding off showing you these tragic photos #SteemFam, as I know you all do a collective brrrrrrrrrrr seeing our little ocean cove this way. Grab some warm socks and a cup of something hot (preferably with alcohol) and let's do this thing.

The boys are getting older now so I let them play with the icebergs a bit, by the shore. Like, wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy by the shore. Our cove isn't that deep, especially at low tide, however it's always better to be safe than sorry when playing with Mother Nature, you must have respect.

The top layer of the water freezes as the tide is up and as it goes down the ice breaks up. It's a twice daily cycle.

Look Out He-Man

It's Keed-Man! He doesn't even wear gloves when lifting icebergs, this guy is savage and he's only 8 years old. (Seriously though, the children are also old enough that I only try one or two times now, to get them to put gloves on before I give up. It's just not worth the energy anymore.)

Today's Treasures

Mid afternoon a glorious mist rolled into the cove, almost high tide...

I hope you stayed warm through our little journey in the icy cove. It's beautiful and rainy out tonight, though it has no chance of melting all those bergs. What's your backyard like right now #SteemFam? I'll see you in the comments!
