Blizzard the Ice-Harvesting Horse

Isn't it so cool that ice was harvested from the frozen waters of Highland Lake? That's how it was done in the early 1900s, so many years ago! Saddle up as Blizzard, the ice-harvesting horse, shares his adventures while he and his neighbors work together during the frigid Maine weather.With the cold wind blowing, it messes up his long mane. Oh well, lake hair, he doesn't care. After all, Blizzard's mane keeps him warm. He can make it through any storm!Cutting and harvesting the frozen crops into blocks of ice, assuring that freshly picked Maine strawberries stay cold through the hot Maine summer. Without ice, that would be a bummer! Neighbors helping neighbors, you will surely see why Maine has always been the way that life should be.
