Start of Spring Weekend

Next »

March 19th through 21st, 2010

On the last weekend of Winter/first weekend of Spring, Knott Lane was in very good shape for this time of year. In town, the Log Cabin Restaurant has a new entrance/deck on the front.  Looks like they may have outdoor dining in the future. Back at the lake, water continues to flow in from the small streams scattered around the shore.  They were running faster last week.  Rain is needed. The ice covering the lake is a little over 10 inches thick.  At the current melting rate, the ice could be out around Easter.  Colder nights could push that back several weeks. There are some very slippery patches on the lake and there are other patches that are essentially frictionless.  Woe to the un-beskated lake crosser that has the misfortune to step onto one of these frictionless areas.  Contusions and lumps will surely be yours.  Lucerne usually goes out about a week or two after Wabikon and Wabikon is not even close.  Next weekend should be telling.  The snow fences and poles are off the golf course (Nicolet Country Club).  Tees and flags are not up yet, but it looks like golf could be back soon.<br><br><br>-Nemo
