Snow is melting fast............

The last few days the snow has almost gone. We have had rain and lots of wind. Then the sun came out. Monday was supposed to be nice but we woke up to this.

We waited till noon and the decided to just go. We had wanted to take a trip out to the county to take a look around. The sky by then was bright blue and the snow was gone. The ice had gone from the Bay all the way out to Suttons Bay. One of the first things we saw were these deer enjoying some time in a spring.No doubt getting full of fresh greens. They are hard to spot with the colour of their coats this time of year. It merges into the surroundings perfectly.


Going through the tiny village of Omena, so quaint and pretty.




We carried on up to the Point and the lighthouse.


It was windy and the Lake was rough. I was all alone on the beach. Too windy for Gerry.

I was thinking it would be cool to see a Bear, silly me.

We left Northport Point and went on several back roads just looking. I love that.
We stopped for lunch at Fischer's Happy Hour. Reubens,they have the best

We ended up in our usual haunts back at Port Oneida. The Sand Hill Cranes are still there. They were at the side of the road and didn't seem to mind my intrusion.

The Beaver sure have made a job of things. Their territory is way up to the road now.

Will the road flood? His den is getting bigger each time we see it. I bet he has quite the family now.
On the way back through Glen Arbor it was good to see progress on the Old Mill house there. Its nice new roof. I wonder what they will be doing with it once it's all done.

We headed home after that. It was getting along in time.
