encapsulated

The weather turned all melty yesterday and today, leaving plenty of icicles everywhere. These strange ones completely encapsulated the tips of evergreen branches in our yard. I thought it looked pretty neat.

Back to work today, which was really kind of nice. It was lovely to see some of my students again! Too many snow days make for a restless me. Was that me insinuating something negative about snow days? I take it back! (Periods of snow in Wednesday's forecast!)
