Winter is upon us

This morning my call is "the lake is frozen." Winter is here. Nov 12 is about a week late for our ice in, but we have also seen ice coming and going in the fall up to late Nov. There are little patches of water still open but not enough this morning to find a path across the lake.



Things are quiet this time of year in the yard but we still have lots to do.



This is the first year we've not done our own winter aircraft maintenance.






Not ready for the sleds yet but we'll soon be in that inevitable winter deep freeze.

We drove from Kenora yesterday and many of the little lakes on the side of the highway were frozen so I knew Agimak Lake was not far off.
