I always thought it was ironic that there was a street called Winterlake Drive running along Summerlake Park in Tigard. As of December 14, 2008, Winter beat Summer. But it wasn't all snow this week. There was a bunch of wind as well.
This tree fell on Monday, December 15, 2008 (it is figured) on the wooden walkway on the Big Fir trail on the way to the Couger Trail (and Big Pond where I was heading) in Tualatin Valley Nature Park. There were no reports of any sounds as it fell because no one was around. The winds were howling that day. The park personnel I came across as they were checking the park for damage said that it wasn't down on Sunday and I came across it on Tuesday, ergo the estimate that it fell on Monday.
However, back to Summerlake Park and the frozen pond it was becoming.
That would be a nutriet walking across the lake. And here are some other pictures that I liked.

Thanks for the post Jeremy! I wish I were home! These pictures are not helping the homesickness right now...
When I was in college in Colorado the pond on campus would freeze over. I liked to watch the geese try to land and slide instead. I also liked watching them walking on the pond and having thier little feet fall through. It was funny.
