An ice boat skims along the ice on Marsh Creek Lake last Friday.

"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."

Cool. This is something I'm not likely to see in Florida, even on what we call 'cold' days like today is.

what a great time to take this shot - the illuminated boat looks superb against the dark surface - very intriguing colour effect and contrast!

Wow, this is terrific. The way everything is dark with the exception of the bright yellow boat is very dramatic.
