Looking Good

The sky and light seems so much more cheery now that daylight savings has begun. What a difference the light makes! The meltwater on top of the ice is rain that has pooled on top and not been able to soak through.

Since taking this picture, a fair amount of snow has melted, and the edges of the lake are watery (not solid) as you can see in the next picture, taken 10 days later. It looks rather dreary without sunshine, but at least our yard is no longer 100% white. 

Trudging through the snow to the lake edge is like walking through a slushie.

 It looks so messy!
