Weekend Diversion: Bubbles on Ice (Synopsis)

“The only frozen heart around here is yours.” -Anna, to Hans, from Frozen

When something's difficult, it's easy to lose sight of what's beautiful. Have a listen to Eilen Jewell's haunting and memorable song,

Fourth Degree.

Next, before you curse the bitter cold yet again, particularly those of you suffering from far below average temperatures, consider the following beautiful sights.

These frozen baubles aren't leftover Christmas decorations that were left out in the snow, but are rather simple soap bubbles that were carefully placed in the cold. The rest was left up to nature itself, and the simple physics of a freezing crystalline structure.

Come find out how to do this yourself on our weekend diversion: bubbles on ice!
