Ice Out Is Underway

We experienced some encouraging signs today that spring is getting close, along with it, the much anticipated ice out. For the first time this winter, there were Canada geese at our shore.

The old husband’s tale is that geese send out scouts. Sure enough, there were just two geese who decided to brave the winter conditions and find out what Minnesota held for them.

There has been a slight warm up, with temperatures crawling into the high 30s. Inevitably, the morning fog is dense, denser than any I’ve experienced before with all of the snow.

We take heart though and realize that this weather is signaling the spring warm up. It won’t be long before we talk about getting the boat in the water. If it weren’t for the annual spring boat repair costs, we’d be celebrating right now.
