A Winter's Afternoon Tea

We filled a thermos with hot tea, bundled up in our warm jackets, and took the short drive over to Mitchell's Bay to check out the ice fishing scene.  It was a cold and cloudy Sunday afternoon.  I am walking across a portion of frozen lake where the
ice fishermen park their vehicles.  The camera is pointing towards shore.  Looking out over the bay over Martin's shoulder, you can see four fishermen walking towards us.  The black dots in the distance are dozens of people fishing through holes they
have a dug in the ice.  Br-r-r-r!  We were glad to go back to our warm truck and drink some hot tea.  It was a very nice outing.  The delicious smell of fish frying could be detected in the air, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.
