Not sure what happened on the last post, but here are the pictures I intended to include.
Well you may think Spring has sprung where you are, and it very well may have. But we have already had not only Spring but also Summer and Fall. Winter is in full swing
and we'll soon be playing hockey on the lake. There may be a chance I am over reacting as it is supposed to be 75 on Saturday. Yeah right! We shall see. For now, it is winter as far as I'm concerned.

Yours in white.

Well it's April 5th and I was in NJ for the weekend, so I'm not able to give an exact date when the ice went out, but it is gone and so is 99% of the snow. It must have been extremely warm over the weekend. I was reminded that last year the ice went out sometime around April 17th. Almost 3 weeks earlier this year.

Though the snow and ice are gone, other than the birds, there is really no sign of spring. No buds on the trees, no evidence of flowers that I've seen. Probably another week away at least. But Spring will get here and soon thereafter Summer. Lot of work to be done between now and then.

I wanted to take a picture of the ice free lake, but the batteries in the camera are spent. I'll send one along later in the week.
