On Wednesday, just after sundown, a storm with a huge gust front, lightning, thunder and not much rain hit the lake. The wind was too much for the white pine that eagles use in the northwest corner of the lake.
No boats or eagles were harmed in the fall. A pier may have suffered minor damage. Unless your name is Craig, you're pier is fine.
The weather has been crummy since Monday. Cool, windy and wet, but not wet enough to raise the lake level (less then an inch of rain & hail). Any rain is good, but I was hoping for more. Wolves were heard howling just north of the lake during campfires on the weekend. It was speculated that they had suddenly become noisy trying to keep away the cold. If so, silly wolves, vodka tonics work much better. Even when paired with ancient, yet still surprisingly fresh limes.
