Tax Sage said...: Nice pic. Mendota did freeze over in the early 80's. Like a fool, I did a solo skate all the way over to Middleton and back. If a crack or soft spot had grabbed me, I might still be there now.; 1/8/13, 4:31 PM

Tim Wohlford said...: Pretty sure it froze up the winter I stayed there. With 120+ inches of snow, and sub-zero cold much of the winter, it sure had its chance.; 1/8/13, 4:37 PM

After all, it ain't as if the climate is changing or anything like that...; 1/8/13, 5:08 PM
Delayna said...: Does it generally freeze over?

Where I live we have winter in 15-minute increments.

Of course, depending on the jet stream, it can get quite cold here...for a few days, anyway. I remember (long ago) when it was colder in Atlanta than Anchorage.; 1/8/13, 6:03 PM
