Fred the mailman beat his way through the rotten ice to about Brush Island yesterday before hitting open water. We consider the first successful boat ride open water, so... ta-da, we are officially there!!!!! Viewing the webcam this morning, looks like the ice to Brush is a distant memory. Lots of ice remains on the big lake though. And subject to moving around. I've been posting these videos on Facebook under "Frank Walsh", if you wanted to see them. Easier than the YouTube program. Also, as a date to live if infamy, this s the first time In history we did not miss one mail day during the transition....
