A Couple of Odd Puddles

[k0xxx]

Here are a couple of puddles from our driveway that are just odd. Maybe this is something that happens all of the time, but for a boy that hails from the un-frozen south, it's just weird.

Huh. That looks strange to me too.

'Course right now, this girl from the mostly-unfrozen south is looking out the window at a landscape buried in snow for two days now ... In the afore-mentioned south!

Crazy weather we're having, that!

Interesting...........

Instead of crop circles, you get ice circles!

Maybe an alien has a crush on you

Oh, you warm-climate people, you

That is not odd, that is *normal* when you have the puddle water slowly seeping into the ground during the day, then freezing at whatever level it's at at night.

Anyone wants an education in how puddles freeze, we normally get our big thaw about 3-4 wks from now, you are welcome to come up and help with the ditches/drainage and admire ALLL the freezey-uppy puddles you want LOL

Pat is right. That is a very normal frozen puddle.

*giggles* here in Colorado, we are not warm climate but we are a desert.

Water seeps in the ground?!? Water, you say? Into the clay? How does it sink in? How do you get enough water for puddles?



LOL

i'm going with aliens.

good luck, k0xxx! let us know if you get abducted

Well I still like them. A lot better than what I've got going on today. The snow is starting to melt and I *JUST DISCOVERED* that somehow snow melting on a tin-roofed coop for some reason makes a MUCH bigger mess inside the coop than a simple rain. Poor geese. For some reason their coop's snow melted before anything else. Well, at least I got to see that and scrape off the remaining ice/snow before it got any worse. Then spent another hour and a half or so cleaning the tops of all the other coops, hutches, and various no-named shelters around here.

About those puddles though ... Did you notice one is a spiral, and one is a bull's eye? I'm pretty sure that rules out a natural phenomena after all, so I'm goin' with the alien theory too!

J/k!
