Effects of nature

With it being Christmas Eve and as I look out the window and see nothing but puddles and rain, that does nothing but depress me, I was charging the camera for tomorrow's festivities and I came across these pictures that I had overlooked a few weeks back when we had the cold snap.

What amazes me is the effects nature has on things, these foam circles were all naturally made by the movement of the water in which they floated and froze solid.

Im praying for some of this soon....To get back out with the rod and get some fishing done again....ah well there is always 2013.
