12/05/08 WHERE THERE'S FIRE THERE'S SMOKE

Friday, 8:30 AM. 5 degrees, wind S, calm at ground level, but moving clouds briskly in the atmosphere. The sly is blue, and the barometer predicts partly cloudy weather. About 2” of light, crystalline snow fell last night. This is one of those freeze your nose, fingers and toes mornings, but it is beautiful to behold. The “lake smoke” is rising off the cooling channel waters, and the Chequemegon Bay appears to be frozen and snow covered from Ashland almost to Washburn and across to Long Island. If this keeps up the ice fishermen and the snowmobilers and 4-wheelers will soon be risking their lives on the thin ice, and It won’t be long before I get the snowshoes down off the wall.
