Harris Lake, Highlands, NC

By the time I completed my frozen waterfall excursion the other day, I ended up in Highlands where I usually stop by Harris Lake to see if I can get any good duck/geese photos. As I rounded the bend there were cars everywhere! It seems that Harris Lake was frozen enough to skate on, something the locals say it hasn't done in about 14 years. Some were on ice skates, some just their shoes. There were mother's pulling their kids on slelds and dogs pulling their owners on skates. Some were playing ice hockey and others just watched from the sidelines, like me.
