A full moon in a black sky with wispy clouds. The moon’s reflection make a line of white across the surface of the lake.

We’ve had warmer Spring-like weather the last week or so, and the ice is melting at a rapid clip. At this rate, I expect all the ice to be melted by next weekend. But nighttime temperatures are still dipping below freezing, so I’m taking full advantage and having a fire this morning. Maybe the last one of the season. #lakelife

Achievement of the day: I successfully rewired that one weird set of 3-way switches that only worked when the switches were in a very specific orientation. And I didn’t even shock myself! ⚡️💡👍

The fishermen say that the ice is 12 inches thick right now. A warming trend is expected later this week, so this is probably peak ice for this winter. Even with above freezing temps on the way, the ice should stay thick enough to fish on for quite a while yet. #lakelife

I love this time of year, with the lake frozen over and a fresh layer of snow. What could be prettier? #lakelife

Spent the afternoon helping my nephew build a birdhouse. He was super excited to be able to use the pneumatic nailer (with supervision). #DIY #woodworking

We had a beautiful day at the lake today, and had what was possibly the last boat ride of the year. (The boat gets taken out on Wednesday.) the trees are starting to turn, and it’s warm (enough) in the sun. I’ll take it! #lakelife
