After several days of sub-freezing weather, it finally warmed up to the 40s; however, it was still too cold to stand outside trying to catch the drips as the icicles on the birdbath thawed!

We didn't need fake icicles for decorations the past two days -- we had the real thing!  Don't let the blue sky fool you; today's high was 27 degrees.
