The ice. It was so gorgeous. The sun shone on it and it sparkled and glittered and turned the burbs into a fairyland. If I could have ditched the kids I so would have, and bundled up, and braved the bitter, windy cold, and shot and shot and shot and shot until the ice melted and the trees were once again lifeless and the sun went down. As it was, we spent the cold, shimmery day in the mall. Far, far away from the fairies and glitzy rays of the sun. Too far.

This beauty was gleaming in the parking lot of Dunkin Donuts. The Dunkin Donuts parking lot. Was beautiful today. Everything was beautiful.
