Day 1 of spring: The view from my upstairs window this morning. Yes, that is ice on Lake Superior, as far as I can see (if you can see the slightly darker blue strip on the horizon, that is Isle Royale, which is about 50 miles away). Even after several days in the 50s earlier this week and lots of sunshine lately. The lake doesn't always freeze over, but once it does it takes a while to break up.
Not much green yet, and there won't be until May. On the bright side, I took today off work, and DH and I went skiing on the crust with our dog this afternoon - you can ski on top pretty much anywhere the snowmobiles haven't been.
