.....yesterday afternoon Saturday about 1-pm as I was removing my large boat-lift up the embankment....I could see some pretty good sized sheets of ice forming all along the outer northern side of Governor's Island...and a couple spots of maybe 20-acres each out by Timber and Mark Island....the air temp at the time was about 10-degrees and the wind was very still....untill a little bit later on when the wind picked up a bit....and the wind increase was apparently enough to disolve the newly formed ice sheets back into liquid water....


...you know the Tilton Wal-Mart carries fishing waders and they have these el cheapo deluxo's which work super-duper....only $16.95...with stocking feet that go inside your sneakers or water shoes....the nylon-vinyl wader goes up all the way to one's armpits, and include two short elastic suspender straps to go over your shoulders or criss-crossed over one's neck...dock removal happiness is having waders which do not leak....and at just 16.95....a steal of a high-quality deal.........gotta love that Tilton Wal-Mart because neither Gilford or Plymouth carry any waders!
