Kanopolis Lake After a Hard Freeze

We’ve had extremely cold temperatures the past couple of days; colder than any since we’ve moved here!

With that in mind, and today being a balmy 10 degrees, we drove out to Kanopolis Lake to see it frozen. We were not disappointed.

As I was putting these pictures together, I had a sense of déjà vu … in large part because I posted a similar set of photos of frozen Kanopolis Lake back in 2007!
