Following a cold snap in the Northeast, Lake Erie's surface is virtually frozen over for the first time in about 14 years.

Just as Global Warming, Climate Change Models predicted, there will be isolated Great Lakes freezing over, here and there...

I shoveled snow for probably the 20th time this winter yesterday. I keep telling myself its good exercise as long as I don't throw my back out again or give myself a heart attack.

My daffodils are popping up and the "spring weeds" are too.....

Lake Erie is the deepest Great Lake, right?

its the shallowest.


Lake Erie, with an average depth of 62 feet, is the most shallow of the five Great Lakes, which is why it is the only one that completely freezes over.

Take it easy Bruno.
. I used to do that for years until a couple of years ago my son bought a tractor and scooped all our trails clean. What a relief.
