Good Morning!
This promises to be an almost springlike day. I say "almost" because it's not going to get very warm. This photo was taken a couple days ago by Diane Rossi. In a normal March, the Ice-Out Contest flag would be in view, too; however, with temperatures remaining in winter mode, we haven't had the heart to ask Larry Rossi to go out on the frigid, windswept ice to set it up. It might be difficult to keep it in place with the wind whipping down the pond, anyway, and the last thing we need is to have to chase a runaway pallet sailing down the pond. So what you see here is a lovely sunrise without any contest paraphernalia - the view you can see if you go to the web cams at just the right moment. These "Kodak Moments" never last very long. Great shot, Diane. When the weather changes, Larry will get the flag
out, but it may not be until after the sale of tickets closes on April
1st - could be well into April before it's out, the way things are going.
