Good Morning! We were surprised to get Diane's email this morning with pictures of the Ice-Out setup with what looks like three or four inches of snow on it! That doesn't look like spring, for sure. We were surprised because we left yesterday in warmish rain (47 degrees), and had rain most of the way to Boston. The sun came out as we arrived in the city and it was quite nice. Today is cloudy and the temperature according to the forecast, will be in the high 40s, with showers. It seems Boston is cooler than normal this spring, too.
    We have had inquiries about the Ice-Out just this morning, whether the contest is over, and these pictures tell the whole story. Looks like it will be a few days! People who chose dates in May could be winners! This is going to be one of the "late" years, if my memory is correct, joining only five other years the flag has gone down in May.
     We will both be checking our email and will report any changes as Diane sends them to us. We hope to be home in just a few days and will try to bring warmer weather north with us.
