    We had small natural ones - ice circles - form in Lake Michigan a few years ago during a long cold snap in Chicago. But this is a whole other level!

    I was 27 when my husband woke me up with a "Disney voice" because the grass in the field was frosted white...it was beautiful! You could see grass through the ice and it crunched as we walked to the car with the dining table salt shaker to "clear the windshield " we thought it would work. Lol. Greetings from Texas

    Next time, add a bunch of salt to the water in the ring. The salt will prevent the water from freezing at normal “freezing” temps, and because saltwater floats on fresh water, it should stay relatively in place in the rim
