thin ice


Hey, when did that happen? The ice near the edge was about 3/4 of an inch thick, and the lake had the look of bearing stretch marks thanks to yesterday's brief snowfall. Whether you find those signs of growth and fertility unsightly or fortuitous or both I have no idea. No ducks in sight near the Wallman rink, just Sparrows, Canada Geese and some Herring Gulls flying backlit by the high sun and flanked by a smudge of half moon.
