Notice where the sun is rising now, it’s in the middle of the island. The days are slowly getting shorter but there’s still plenty of work to be done.

Yesterday, Don went to the outposts and removed the docks at Mount and Pettit 2 so they won’t be damaged when the ice goes out in the spring. It’s windy today so he’ll have to wait to do the dock at Pettit 1.

We continue to have mild days, daytime temperatures remain above zero and night time temperatures don’t dip too much below zero. Last year the lake froze over November 27th. Any bets on when it might freeze this year?
