You ever been out on a frozen lake on a calm day or night and hear the ice booming? I've had it crack right under me like that. Weird thing is, when it's booming, it's making ice. It's a good sound. But scares the heck out of novices.

A few from yesterday. This is at Courtney lake NFS Campground which is a super nice little CG that we've stayed at many times. They get a tad more snow than we do it town. This parking lot is for ice fishmen.

I remember many years ago, seeing a sign that showed the amount of snow that accumulated. I remember the sign was vertical and it showed about 300". Is that sign still up there.

Th snow depth gauge is still there along highway 41 and up in the Kewee from us..

We are still skiing here but the snow is really going down. If we got more exciting snow photos, I'll post them.

Hey ArlyA - it's time for some pics of green grass and clear skies. We still had traces of snow in the shaded valleys about three weeks ago.

Maybe for you, but probably not for ArlyA for awhile. We are in northern lower Michigan and still have some snow on the ground and we receive a lot less than he does. Jon
