Two undated images from the Bellevue American show children playing on a frozen pond.

“No, this isn’t Fargo, North Dakota,” the caption reads, “It’s Bellevue, Washington, near the entrance to Aqua Vista. Despite warnings from various city and county agencies, the kids braved the cold and possibility of thin ice to take advantage of the frozen pond. Dogs, with varying degrees of enthusiasm, followed their masters in the icy temperatures.”
