Out of the fog ...


Hello Everyone --

For the past couple of days we've been clouded in fog. The fog finally lifted today and we got out and about to enjoy the sunshine.  Although the fog restricted our visibility, we did have a visitor on Sunday - a big surprise since the lake only recently opened up along the north shore.

Our neighbor, who is building his cabin, boated across the lake from the Upper Landing.  He not only navigated his way through the fog to work on his cabin - he surprised us with some treats - fresh milk, eggs and ICE CREAM!! 

Open water - looking east towards the Kenai River.

Today, as we were taking in the view of the lake, we spotted a landing craft (boat) zooming from the Lower Landing and motoring along the north shore - heading towards the Upper Landing.  Not sure where the landing craft was going.

Hoar frost clings to the trees - they appeared to be covered in powdered sugar.

During the days that we were covered in fog we kept busy with projects and walked across the island on trails - exploring.  Since most of the snow has melted away - we were able to see a number of rabbits bounding along.  The rabbits look out of place in their winter color (white) - they stand out like sore thumbs against browns and greens.

We are now waiting for the lake to freeze - maybe we will get some snow too so that we can ski and get the snow machine out again. 

Take Care --
