Big Ice...


We had a wonderful day.  We opened our presents this morning and before making pie and Christmas dinner, we decided to go out to the Glacier.  We're so happy we did.  It was splendidly beautiful.  A lot of the icebergs that fell from the Glacier last month are frozen in place and you can easily walk up to them.

How thick the ice is on the lake, I'm not sure but it's pretty thick.  Some of the bergs were huge!
See pics below.

Have a wonderful holiday everyone.  Time for rum and eggnog!



Tunnels through the ice created by rushing water.  We touched history today as these great bergs could be hundreds of thousands of years old since the whole area was once miles deep in ice.
