Ice Is Slippery

Yesterday as I was dropping the little man off at school, I noticed the landscaping in the parking lot was completely covered in ice. It was nothing but a giant ice cube with plants inside. Now that's something I don't see every day. As you know, I don't do mornings very well, and had forgotten to bring my purse with me, so I didn't have my camera. I hoped it would be there when I went to pick him up. When I got there at noon, the ice had melted quite a bit, but I still tried to get a few shots.






Not as impressive as it was at 8am, but still pretty cool for noon in Florida. Oh, and a note to any other ice amateurs. If there is ice on the landscaping, there is probably going to be ice on the pavement right in front of the landscaping. You may not see it, but when your ballet flat hits it as you crouch down to take pictures, and you go flying across the parking lot, that's when you'll know it's there. Oh, and don't be concerned for your health if another person who happens to be walking across the parking lot rushes over to help you as you are sprawled on the pavement with the contents of your purse spilled across your chest. I speak from experience when I say you can't actually die from embarrassment.
