| Friday night, when we arrived, the waxing moon was visible through light clouds and the temperature was not so bad. |
| Saturday morning was partly cloudy and the snow was melting fast. |
| Metal roofs with a steeper pitch "avalanched" in the warm sun. |
| The forts on the lake are shrinking. |
| The hole from last week has not froze over very deeply. Ice-out may be sooner than you think. |
| When we started to drill the hole to measure the ice depth we were feeling fresh,rested and excited to see how deep the ice was. |
| It took longer than expected to get to the bottom of the ice. We began to feel tried and fatigued. |
| There is about 25.25 inches of good ice. Ice-out wiil not happen next week. |
| Construction crews took advantage of the weather all day Saturday. |
| It looks like the roof will be finished by Saturday night. |
| We will be back in a week or two. |
