watching people walk around in shorts and tank tops it's hard to believe that it's still mid winter...Monday was a good reminder how cold it is and has been in the lakes.region.. I had to chisel a ramp Saturday to get onto the ice ...over the ice flows..it took 19 holes averaging 26" of ice to kill the battery in the Ion... of coarse I carry a spare.. it was a balmy 7 degrees at 5:30 when I got there.. it warmed up to a blistering 28 degrees by 4 when I packed it in..
