The photos are awesome and beautiful to see. My favorite are the blueberries hanging down and cased in ice. The monkey bars are very unique. Thanks for the photos. Even though the ice storm was a nightmare, it did bring some beauty to it.

IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN COPY ONE OF THESE FOR A DESKTOP PICTURE???

Right click and "set as background" should come up as an option. Left click on "set as background". You can then check your monitor to find your new background.

It amazes me how something so beautiful can be so destructive. Maybe the beauty is the "silver lining" in the cloud.
