Isnt' snow magical? It's a good thing I have this love for snow because here in New England it's almost a daily event. 
I went for a ride yesterday with my camera to memorize the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr COLD. We have a lake down the hill and well, as I was driving by I noticed...
Now what?
I just had to get out of my car and get a better look.
There in the distance I saw everyone out on the icy lake.
Yup ice fishing!
Now how do these people keep warm?
I know that some of them build fires, and some have little houses to keep warm...but,
A I got a closer look, I saw that bottle sitting on that box. Now I know how they keep warm.
Some kids had cleared away the snow and were ice skating, some were using their snow mobiles. 
All in all I love how everyone is out enjoying the lake. Even when brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr baby it's cold outside!
As for me and my mittens...I went home for some hot chocolate and to sit by the fire.
The song for this post is Baby It's Cold Outside, sung by an oldie but goodie...Mr. Dean Martin.
Oh Karen, the snow does look so cold...but I think the hope of catching a fish keeps them warm. Your photos are very good, I love the way you use them to tell the story. Thank you for visiting Margie's Crafts and leaving your lovely comment. I would love if you lived closer and would be honoured to have you come over and use my work space. hugs Margie.
I was going to enlighten you if you weren't sure how those fishermen were staying warm. LOL!
I've never been out on the ice for long...way too cold for me. But I do remember taking "shortcuts" across frozen lakes thereby cutting off many miles...in a vehicle. It scares me to think of that now.
TO ME,YOU WERE THE SMART ONE.I JUST CANNOT TAKE THE COLD.
YOU ASKED WHERE I GOT ALL THE PINKS.I JUST GOOGLED RARE PINKS AND STRANGE PINKS...GOOD LUCK.OR YOU'RE WELCOME TO BORROW MINE.I BORROWED THEM TOO.IN FACT,THE BEST ONES ON GOOGLE,THEY WON'T------LET YOU BORROW,HUMP.....ANN
Hi Karen, it's snowing here in Maine too! Yup, those guys drag a house out there on the lake, bring a snak, build a fire, have a drink, talk, ...uh, why are we out here? Uh that's right, we're fishing!
Best pictures i have seen in a while!!!
We have a moderate climate so snow and ice are not that common in winter here and I guess no one would make a fire on the ice, but I think the way that those people stay warm would appeal to some people here too! Beautiful photos!
Hi Karen, And here in the south we think that it is cold when it reaches the low 40's. lol. I love your photos of the snow, it is so beautiful. We haven't had snow in years now, but we are always hoping.
Take care and stay warm.

Came over for Pink Saturday & got sidrtrackled by the awesome photos in this post. Love the ones peeking through the pines!
I have fond memories of ice fishing with my dad when I was a kid in Wisconsin. We get a bit of ice here in the mountains of California, but nothing thick enough to walk out on like back east.
I especially love the mitten picture! Melinda
