Most of the ice pushed through in a shorter time period than most years; the breakup started around 1:15 pm and by 11:00 pm there were boats on the water.
Here’s what it was like at 4:30 pm.
There were a few pockets of water showing up by mid day.
The ice piled high on the dike.
King…or queen of the hill.

And once the ice passed – the boats came out!
And then there was a peaceful sunset to end the day.
And this was this morning the 27th at around 7:00 am.
And now we just wait for it to melt!
