Dern, I sure hope we're done with cold weather

cause have you priced used Ice Shantys lately....outrageous and they gouge you on shipping to boot.

It was 47 degrees here yesterday at 5:00 when I left. I knew it had been cold, but I can't honestly say I've ever seen the old river run freeze over like that, especially with the river moving water just 125 feet away.....and that was after the warm temps yesterday. Brrrrr.

Also, no pics, but Bougue Creek just about froze over on Hwy 8 at the peak of the cold. Big chunks of plate ice in the center both directions and froze completely out to 20 or 25 feet. NEVER seen that before.

The last pic is the ice cycles at the spillway. No reason for posting them. I just like ice cycles so deal with it.
