We had a very warm day yesterday with temps in the 80's. Yahoo!!! That's just what we need to melt down the ice and snow here. John and I drove to Kenora yesterday to pick up some more dock materials and on the way there, we saw many lakes that were now in the black ice stage and some totally open. They are a little ahead of us, but not by much. With another week of warm weather, we hope to be ready for our fishermen opening weekend.
John, Joanna and I just took our first boat ride up the river to the lake this morning. Once we got to the lake, we could see that the ice is about 6 inches thick on the closest edge, so maybe up to 12 inches further in on the lake.
As you can see from the pictures, we are making progress. Today we are working on another 16 foot floating dock section to add to our new longer dock system. Then we will be repositioning the other docks to make more room for boats to park. Things are in high gear hear and we are excited about receiving our first guests of the season. Everyone stay hopeful and pray!
