The patterns in the ice were always intriguing.
Some warmer weather has probably meant the the ice has now completely melted. But winter isn't over yet! Yesterday (written on Feb. 3) Phil the groundhog saw his shadow, which predicts 6 more weeks. Ugh. I'd like it cut in half, maybe 3 more before I go a bit more berserk than usual.
Today I plan to walk at the lake, and pick up a lunch provided by the Council on Aging (how long will they be in business I wonder) upstairs in the Lakeview Center. The downstairs is not renovated since the flood of the lake 6 feet up the walls after Helene. So there aren't the social opportunities of sitting at lunch, nor any of the various games and classes that we used to enjoy at the Senior Center. Many (I hope) seniors plan to attend the next Town Meeting next Monday and ask for more help in getting the center renovated.

Your cover photo is beautiful. The patterns on the ice are interesting. Enjoy the rest of the week Barbara.
ReplyDeleteOf course, there is much ice here, but not in today's posts which are of open water. It depends how fast the current is flowing in and given spot. Once the river is flowing through town, it is going pretty fast. Before it enters town, is is wider, even called a lake, and the ice is thick enough for ice fishing huts.
