Channel opens up!!  A true sign of spring!

This is looking real good right now......

19 days and counting.

Quotes that hit the nail on the head:

"February is merely as long as is needed to pass the time until March"
                 Dr. J.R. Stockton

"If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant"
                 Anne Bradstreet




Sitting here looking at the frozen river and wishing/hoping/praying for the channel to open up.
A true sign of spring!

I will try to remember to post a picture when that happens.

 

Had fun with our little overnight visitor. I think he did too!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Loves the tape measure!

 

 

Winterfest 2013

I wasn't actively involved, but did attend long enough to join in and have a couple beers. Here is what river rats do for fun in the winter.......

The fire is just getting going. They did have about half a dozen christmas trees and a whole cotton wood from upstream on this fire. Maybe you can pick out the couch, lounge chairs, picnic tables, grills, etc. Fun stuff!!

They did have plenty of races up until about 8pm. Then they started to race the pick ups up and down the river. The three wheeler(not in this picture) was definately the fastest and the driver was amazing!

It takes all seasons to make fun on the Cedar! For me, I can't wait for spring!
