Jeff did you get one of those bee suits and a smoker or are you just winging it?

Oh yea...no snow again this year, so might be boat hunting white geese here soon.

Plenty of geese and swans going over the house, might step out on the porch and knock down supper one of these days.

lol that's true, Jeff, in fact I had nice combo pizza the other night at Sacketts. We did manage to get a few geese last fall, but not off the porch.


Well crud, I tried to download a pic but it says there's a problem, too big or whatever.

I saw on the news today that this year was the earliest green up in recorded history. Tuesday was the official green up.

There is high water coming yet bringing all my winters wood. Should be delivered to my door here soon. But it normally goes over the bank or at least up to the bushes in the foreground.

Here is a normal break up.

Guess its time to accept what used to be unusual is now the norm. Last 5 years the hottest globally in recorded history. Not much to debate about when you're living it. Has anyone experienced a colder last five years on average?
