It's that season again where the weather turns cold and, in many parts of the northern hemisphere, snow and ice begin to show themselves. Of course here at Digital Diner, we believe in Discretionary Winter, so winter doesn't come to us, rather we go it it. One of the places where we go to experience winter is Yosemite. It turns out that they have a very interesting form of ice called Frazil Ice. Frazil Ice is a unique slushy mixture of not quite solid, not quite liquid water that shows the physical characteristics of lava when it flows. Cool stuff. Literally.
