In my working years I would watch storms out my office window, seeing the waves break over the piers of the ship canal. I lived very close to the lake and one winter the lake effect snow dump caused our garage to collapse.

And the ice is blue:



I miss the big lake.
Oh my goodness... I never would have imagined the ice being blue! It's beautiful in it's own way. I love nature. Assume the blue color maybe has something to do with the fact that it's a concentration of salt water. Great pic, thanks for sharing!
