We have ice out! Crooked Lake and Clam Lake are both open! It’s uplifting to see open water – even if it is amidst a carpet of white. After almost all of our snow melted and we enjoyed some unseasonably beautiful days, we were fools to think we were “out of the woods” where winter was concerned. We even saw a turtle cross the road and heard the seagulls return this week. But today, we’re enduring a Winter Storm Warning and are keeping our fingers crossed that the temperatures stay high enough to keep things from getting too icy. Even so – I know a few places where I can go to see some flowing liquid and the rest of our lakes will follow suit as the days go along. Welcome Spring! – Wanda Boldon
