Freezing temperatures and big waves on Lake Erie have turned a Cleveland lighthouse into an unbelievable ice sculpture. 

There is a quick clip showing a wave spraying the entire lighthouse.  Pretty neat-o!

I saw that on the weather channel this morning. Very cool. Imagine if you were the lighthouse keeper. How would you get out?  :)

I saw that too!  Amazing!!!!  Brian....somehow, I don't think there would be any getting out of there until the "big thaw".

Dude.... that would NOT be cool.  It would be FREEZING!!!  And dark, and probably not a lot of fun.  Haha!

When the temps hit the low that they did, and with the waves constantly crashing as they do, I wonder just how long it took for it to freeze to that condition.
