The view out my front door; Maine. Water on the edge and the ice is looking grey in the middle. That indicates it's not long before it's gone. Maybe a week? That would mean the third week in March. The ice never went out before mid-end of April long ago. The past several years it's been approx. a month early. This year it will be the earliest thus far. That pier on the lower right gets wheeled in and my boat gets tied to it. I got the registration yesterday.

"There's fishes under that there ice."
