Home again

Last Sunday afternoon we crossed the lake on the ice to stay a few days at Mary's camp. The shoreline here at the lodge had solid ice, but at Mary's it was getting a little thin.(see March 28 posting). I took over a hundred photos while walking on the ice Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, but by Tuesday afternoon, the ice was too soft to step off the rock anymore (as pictured here).

Wednesday afternoon we hiked 2 hours on the ski trail to get back home. After being away for 3 days, I thought the ice here would be soft too...but it is not. We still have 6 inches of solid ice right up to the beach at the sauna. However, with today's temperature predicted to be +20...it won't last long.
