2007 has been so warm that there isn’t even any ice on the Range Ponds. People have been saying they have flowers and blossom already.
That morning we woke up to temperatures in the low fifties. We were looking out on the lake and saw Dipper Ducks up and down looking for something to eat. Dipper Ducks, a small water bird: a small plain-colored bird that lives beside rivers and can swim and dive.
I mean most years people are out on the lake in fish houses or even cars and trucks, ice fishing.
