YAY! After the coldest and snowiest April on record for this area, spring has finally arrived!
Now if we take the rise from -20F to a beautiful high of 70F yesterday... I expect to see the leaf trees actually having leaf cover by the end of May. Things are looking good!

Another 70 F day.... The Ice has melted on the 5th of May... |

Well, not totally. But today ought to melt the remaining cover off of this beautiful lake. This is typical of the spring here this year. Ice depth was 4 ft (1.2 M) this winter. How wonderful to see the geese on open water again!
Time to get after that Studebaker engine rebuild...
