I went to frost.bob. I had fun. I took pictures. Here they are.

These photographs were taken with a Polaroid 2000 digital camera. The batteries protested the bitter cold, but somehow most of the photos turned out all right. They are kind of big. If you are not on a super high speed connection, you should at least look at the photos marked because they are the best.

For some reason they seem awfully dark on my Sun. They looked good on my PC. If they seem crummy to you, it's your computer's fault, not mine.

Check out Jenine's pictures and JV's pictures, too.
