Melting
Funny thing happens when it gets warmer out--snow and ice melts. Now, we had a lot of snow and ice, and it has to go somewhere. So, where does it go? Apparently that big lake in my backyard. The water level is....a little high. For instance:
You will notice the large amount of trees growing out of the water. Not the usual way that trees grow.
In fact, in the little gully on the right side of my background, it's almost completely full of water.
If you look at my little deck, you will also notice that it is almost floating on the lake...
...in fact, a corner of it is actually under water. How cold you think that water is?
Maybe flood insurance isn't such a bad thing after all... :)

Question is, did you ever go out on the ice before it melted? That's the fun of having a pond if you ask me... tempting fate to slide about on it in the winter. :) Now it's good for a polar plunge!
Yeah, you'll be missing all that water come summer time when you want to fish, or swim, or boat. You'll see. ;)
No, never got out onto the ice. First of all, it's a lot less exciting to do that by yourself, and I don't know many people here....and secondly, basketball kept me pretty busy. Actually, basketball is probably firstly... :)
basketball on ice? that would be fun. better be really safe ice though.
