Today was the first day of sunshine since, uh, last year.  It is just beautiful outside.  I drove down to check the progress of the ice on Big Glen, and it’s coming along at a pretty normal clip.  As you can see in these photos there is some pretty ice around the Narrows, and lots of blue/green open water.  In the southwest corner it’s building up as always, and was sparkling in the sun.

It will be a good afternoon for a little cross country skiing. And then some Michigan basketball Sunday afternoon.
