End of Winter


With past weeks warm weather and heavy rain on 12th all the snow has melted off the ice and sunny all week the ice has turned black and getting mushy. Eroding both from underside and top side.
I took the truck off 16:00 on 17th,This is the earliest for us. Will travel with Sidekick today and tomorrow and then quad after that??
Geese arrived on 16th as well as black flys, Seagulls,Golden eye ducks and Grackles on 16th .
Coming through Dorian Marsh at dusk last night I counted 5 beavers on the ice-first time seeing that.
The coons have been here every night cleaning up the birdseed underneath the feeders,making lots of noise and giving the cat a hard time.
At the rate we are going should be boating in April.
This picture was taken on 13th North side of Dorian Marsh from the truck-showing ice road.
