Let it Snow!

It snowed all day yesterday and all night....Let it snow!!! That ice hut should be able to go to the river soon. I did a test hole and it was about 5-6 inches thick. People were skating on the river a couple days ago. During the storm we watched a mink feeding at the culvert beside our place. The water was still open there, as there is a creek that flows into the river. He was in and out of the river and walked the shore line over to our shed. We also saw a beaver at the open water. This morning after a night of snow, the water is no longer open for them. The creek appears to be frozen over now.
