The Ice is GONE!








It was in the 60s today so Mom and I decided to check out the bogwalk again. We discovered the walk was floating on top of the water but when Mom walked on it, it sank way way down - sorry Mom, but I think *someone* has some weight to lose, besides ME! Most of it was underwater all the way out to the lake. Mom says she has NEVER seen the water this high before. EVER. Our zen bench, halfway out went through the winter fine. It was nice to take a little break on it and soak up some sun. Then we waded the rest of the way out to our lakeside deck. My lounge chair was a great place to sit and soak up some more sun while Mom waded out to the end of the walkway to get a picture of the lake. While we were sitting out there, we heard two pileated woodpeckers. We started back and stopped at the zen bench for a while, hoping we could get a picture of them, but they were flying deeper into the swamp and we didn't see them. We listened to them for a long long time. They are noisy birds! We just got back to the house when Aunt Lana dropped by and we talked to her for a while. This was a wonderful weekend, but Mom didn't get very much done on the Rear Door. Shame on her, I guess I better put on my work belt and get her back in gear.
