Truly we've broken the back of Winter at the western end of Lake Superior.

May 25th, 2014, 2am

It was 12°C. The wind was calm.

True! we still have flows of ice floating off shore. True! Yesterday as I worked in the garden I experienced 46° while my friends who live further from the Lake enjoyed 86°. Tonight, however, at 2:00 am, I sit comfortably outside on my deck enjoying the night and some tea! I hear spring peepers along with the honks of Canada Geese. True! I have a blanket thrown over my knees. True! I would be wearing a shawl if owned one. But tea outside at two in the morning? Truly winter’s gone!
