Taken on February 10th
I found myself on US 340 on Tuesday, traveling from Winchester to I-66. I made a brief stop at Lake Frederick to eat my Aloha bar and see the lake. It was covered with ice and snow.
I’m sure by now most of that has melted because we have had a couple of days of warmer weather and today it rained all afternoon.
The state game commission maintains a public access point for fishing. A single lane of the road had been cleared, and part of the parking lot was clear.
The state of Virginia owns the lake and the perimeter, but beyond that are housing developments.
...too thin for ice fishing?
ReplyDeleteIt really looks pretty!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting Winter, All lakes frozen in my area. The coldest February for at least a century.
ReplyDeleteOur lake is frozen too, beautiful views and photos.
ReplyDeleteTake care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
Lovely those photos! Our snow is finally showing signs of melting.
ReplyDeleteIt's very pretty Linda -- the kind of picture that makes me feel like i'm missing something. (And I am, but then I remember why...) I'm glad really that the State keeps a path into the lake open for fishermen and photographers!
ReplyDeleteOur lakes and rivers are also frozen, but I think the ice will last quite a while.
