The last of the ice was moving about on the pond today. This morning I took this picture of some 'bergs drifting into the marsh at the north end of the lake. There was a strong wind coming up the lake. This afternoon when I was out doing some yard work, the wind seemed to be more out of the northeast, but I couldn't be sure. Sometimes the hills around and in back of our house cause the wind to bounce a bit.
Things are sprouting in the flower beds, but everything is very compacted from being under so much heavy snow. Also, sever


Fred is back in the wood business, thinking already about having our 2010 supply brought this spring instead of waiting until fall. That way he'll be able to get it split and piled and give it a little extra time to dry this summer. The supply he got last fall will go into the garage this fall, dry and ready for winter, 2009.
I haven't been out to see how the road is today. Yesterday it was very bumpy where there had been muddy spots, and worse where the town dumped gravel in to fill the mud holes. Lots of traffic today, and a lot of them hit the bumps along our section of the road at top speed, so it would not be surprising if there are pieces of cars scattered along the road.
I'm putting the finishing touches on the newsletter and Evelyn will be ready to print within a day or so, so it should be in the mail very soon. Our Joe's Pond Association officers are drifting back; I understand George and Judy Anderson arrived today and Tom and Camilla Dente are expected Tuesday. The others will be arriving shortly, so the new season is about to begin.
