A nice walk...... several hundred yards out on Lake Michigan!

 When it is winter in Michigan the Great Lakes freeze. This winter has been extremely cold and windy for weeks at a time. The result, a lot of thick ice with ice bergs on the Great Lakes! The five lakes are all at least 90% frozen. Seizing the opportunity, my family and I went out to take pictures as celebration for my birthday. We were quite surprised at what we saw. The ice was at least three feet thick. I had to take a picture of the arrowhead in my pocket on the ice.
