The Ice is Retreating

The sun’s subtle strength is working on the ice along our shore…

Facing South doesn’t hurt either.

Waiting for The Chief

Our local cruise boat, The Chief Commanda spends the summer rubbing up against the tires when not navigating the lake carrying tourists and other sightseers.

She won’t launch from her winter berth in Callander for another month, well after the ice is gone.  Her appearance will signal the start of the summer season.

…On The Dock of The Bay…

Not quite as relaxing as the song.  But pretty nice anyway…

Waiting

This is the time of year that seems to pass slowly as the ground thaws and the ice melts.  The explosion of life that will happen in a couple of weeks is imminent but for now, waiting is the only thing to do.

Here is a photograph taken while passing time on the docks…

Yes, the ice is still there.
