SPRING ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURES

HOW TO MAKE A WALKING STICK

Great walking stick sample
Two trees are selected
(back up tree if needed)

First tree is dropped and caught before landing

(it prevents cosmetic damage to wood)

Second tree is "pulled out"
"Happy Dance" in celebration.

SAFETY NOTE
Do not try this at home unless your`re
a trained risk taker.

MORE SIGNS OF SPRING

Our friend a "Great Blue Heron" is back.
What a nice way ...... to end the day.

WEATHER CHANGE

With the weather so great - off with the snow tires!

Today - Oh Well!

LOTS OF WATER

Yesterday the water was rising.
Today it crested
Go slowly here

Wetland outlets are working

Fast water

Let's hope the worst is over.

Road is still passable.

BIRTHDAY BOY!!

Yesterday we had a birthday in the family.

There's a lot of candles missing but the number of candles

really matches his birthday spirit.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY-PAUL
