Drove down to the local marina early this morning and noted that the
channel was pretty much iced over, though not solidly. I drive down
there about once a week, and today's ice was the first I've seen this
year or, in fact, in several years. I remember one year the inner harbor
in Deale, Maryland, was completely iced over for several weeks.

Doubt the ice is thick enough to walk on and I have no intentions of
finding out.

Not a biggy...we simply don't see much of this down here in the
mid-Atlantic area.

Speaking of ice.... I still have about 4" left from 2 weeks ago....
that usually means more is on the way....

Speaking of ice, I need some more for my drink. *Luckily I live at 3700'
elevation, and we don't get a lot. *My cabin gets socked in for 4-5 months a
year, though. *The Interstate near us climbs from 3700 to 5000 in 13 miles,

the California and Nevada drivers.
