Ice out on Chequamegon Bay 2011 edition.



For the most part today was "ice out day" on Chequamegon Bay. Some years the right wind will completely clear the bay. This year although the majority of the bay is clear and open the southern shores of the bay have "cocktail" ice floating along the shore.

This video is a little longer than usual but give us a break... after 5 months of ice it is nice to see open water. Real nice to see open water. So sit back and enjoy. The last couple of minutes of this video are here by special request. For one of my loyal reader. Enjoy the sounds. Enjoy the thoughts.

"Loyal reader" - eh? If I find out you have stolen one of my 5 (yes, five!) loyal readers, well....

I'm not poaching "loyal readers"...... really!

Ice Out has a nice ending, the changing from dark to light along with the movement of the ice sounding like crystal chimes.
Mesmerizing.
