Incredibly, another ice storm hit the Ozarks in 2008. Though less devastating than the 2007 ice storm, it still caused damage and power outages. George Deatz took some extraordinary photographs of the storm in Springfield's beautiful Close Memorial Park. George, a member of Friends of the Garden, the nonprofit group raising funds for a new Botanical Center in the park, took the pictures February 12-13, 2008, catching this normally warmer boy and his dog, and more.
