Notes

Sunny and calm day with no rain in past 24 hours, or for weeks actually. Seagulls and canada geese around and songbirds too. Plenty of zebra mussel shells along the rocks and the waterline is very far out now for so early in the year. Could this be the year waterfront property owners are complaining about having to add lengths to their docks to reach water, after recent years being flooded out?
