For more than thirty years I've been wandering the woods and waterways of Saratoga County, New York, and regions nearby, looking closely, listening carefully, and recording what I experience. We are blessed in this region with an amazing amount of wilderness right at hand. With this blog I share my year-round adventures here, seeking out what wonders await in my own Madagascar close to home.

Oops!
While taking this video of snowmelt flooding over the road, my foot went through the ice and my boot filled with very cold water. The camera caught my reaction in audio.
I observed that same phenomenon when I turned into my next-to-home-road on the way home from work yesterday. People wonder why the ditches on these roads are four feet deep. Snowmelt is why.
The sound you made is nothing like the sound(s) I might have made had I been in your boots.

Oh gosh, that was not a good sound!!! Poor you! Been there, done that! It's going to be a messy spring for a little while.
ReplyDeleteYou do seem to have a thing about stepping thru thin ice! :)
ReplyDeleteHi June and Rain and Ellen. Thanks for your comments. And you're right, Ellen, about me and thin ice. I just can't seem to stay off the stuff.
