One of the things I really love about winter is walking on frozen bodies of water. You get a whole new viewpoint, standing in a place that was impossible to get to a few weeks before. Today I took Charlie to Dane Park in Brookline, and the little marshy area I call Deer Tick Swamp was totally iced over. I was able to walk over to a long dead tree and see the undisturbed coating of British soldier lichen growing on it. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera, so all you get is this awful cellphone pic, but now I know they're there, I'll return. Alexis thinks they may be the closest British soldiers to the center of the city. Maybe I'll have a contest.

Here's a link to our first visit to Dane Park--including some British soldiers.
