We had not been to Maine in quite some time and we were all missing it.  The cold had prevented us from going, so cold, you would not have been able to be outside.  Last weekend though, the temps were a bit higher and it was a long weekend for the boys, so this was our window of opportunity to visit the Maine house.  The boys were very excited.  It was still cold but not cold enough to keep everyone but me from skiing and we did get to spend some time outdoors.  I'll revisit our ski day soon,  but for now I have an ice adventure to share with you..
