Same here.

Nice for a change...eh?

 

[LittleLakePhil]

Eeeew.


Septic issues, as in you need to have it pumped?

Or issues,like you need a new one dug.

I'll just get it pumped..... the problem is more the time of year.... we had a quick snow melt.
Now I think it's just a matter of to much water.... but after the snow is all gone I'll get it pumped is been a while.

The Princess has implants - I'm not as tough as her - I saw the pain that she dealt with.

Pretty sure that's the route I'll go some day....

Morning fellow (soon to be) pond paddlers.
Looks like, if we get the expected warm up with the predicted strong winds and some rain on Thursday, we could possibly have ice out on some of the lakes this week! I can't remember EVER having ice out in March!!! Not on any of the larger water of course, but it is a real possibility on the "puddles" as they're referred to here. It is almost impossible to find a straight stretch of road up here unless it's one of those four lane + things because we are so riddled with "pothole" lakes everywhere with a larger one thrown in occasionally and of course rivers and creeks in between. Even the BIG water (aka Lake Superior which rarely freezes all the way because of it's size) had far less ice cover than normal this year because of the spastic weather (as Phil can attest to). We only have about a foot or so of snow left on the ground but a few feet of frozen ground so if we get too much rain this week some areas are going to become very "splashy". Thankfully we only have one area on the high ground where the house and buildings sit that tends to turn into a lake til the ground thaws.

I plan to go fishing Thursday in Munising.
We still have a good amount of ice.
I was on a local lake last week there was 3 feet of ice.

I hear ya.... all the melt can be an issue.

Glad it just needs to be pumped.

Wow and we got diddly squat this year....

We got a bit higher than average...

Last maybe 3 years we had way less than normal... so this year, since spouse started plowing... spouse was lazy and didn't push the snow all the way back.

Me... I try to be paranoid in a practical way ... so I always push the snow waaaaaaaay back.

If the snow had been pushed back correctly to start with... I would have needed a loader only once this winter...

Ah well
