Thank you Susan from Rochester for sending along this story of your visit to the quarry this past winter:
When some relatives announced that they wanted to visit us in March, we were dumbfounded. What on earth to do with company in mud season??? So we took them to the verde antique quarry, which was not in operation, and were astonished at the drama. Huge hunks of ice, the size of large refrigerators, were dropping off the surface of the quarry and falling hundreds of feet into the water below. I’ve been to Alaska and seen icebergs breaking up, and this was every bit as spectacular. We all had goose bumps. Susan, Rochester
