The process has begun…

It's begun, but will still be quite some time. Local ice fishermen are reporting 15-17" of ice still there.

I took a ride up to Gilford last night. There is an open channel down the middle of a good portion of Alton Bay. I don't recall seeing it open down the middle like that before.

Sorry, we were rushing up to deliver a bathtub before dark. All of the wiring is ripped apart inside so we don't have any interior lights. What did I get myself into?

I may take a ride up tomorrow morning, if so I will take a picture.

Codeman wouldn't lie. I live in Alton Bay and it was a long lead, just wide enough to get some unsuspecting boater caught in between two massive floes.

I know that.... known him for years. Whenever I post anything without a picture ( new boat horn, Midnight Express at Glendale docks ), I get the same " pics or it didn't happen " comment from him. Just returning the favor!

Ya gotta love it. Nothing like some good-natured kidding.

Here's the pics to prove its happening

The channel down the bay is wider than it looks. These were quick shots out the window on the way up this morning. Plus a shot from our yard looking out towards Diamond.
