Went for a hike today and discovered this little pond. It's been unseasonably warm for the past couple of days (record setting warmth, actually.. 65f/18c) and it's been quite nice to spend some time outside.

Part of the pond was frozen, and other parts were marshy and swampy. It's very strange to see a frozen pond when it's warm enough out that you can wear a t-shirt. I don't mind, though.. as long as I'm not skiing, unseasonable warmth doesn't bother me ;)
