Cars on the Ice

I haven't mentioned my column on Branford Patch recently, though it's currently the most consistent place you can find me online (or in any published venue, now that I think about it). But before it gets too far buried in the column's archives, I wanted to point out the last pair of articles on a "Then and Now" feature: "Then and Now: The Year(s) The Sound Froze?" has my very favorite picture from the Branford Historical Society's photo archives, the image of a car parked on Long Island Sound, out among the Thimble Islands, when the Sound froze in 1934. (The article itself asks for guesses about the year in the image; this past week's column provided the answers I mention here.) At any rate, this is the first time that image has been available online, and because I love it, I think y'all should go over and look at it.
And if you don't feel like leaving livejournal to check it out, you can look at this pretty winter picture of the Sound instead, from last year, when we actually had snow. :)
