Saturday, March 12, 2011 Ice Out Ice out at the bog creates some interesting patterns and textures. I can hear the red-winged blackbirds trilling away on the other side, a pleasant sound to hear in harmony with the running water.

Friday, March 11, 2011 Ice Breaker Another day of rain today, another day of bailing out the basement. A late afternoon walk to the bog revealed some open water along with some red-winged blackbirds trilling in the bushes. Maybe spring really is coming!
