Thanks, my friend. This weeks temps were good but next weeks forecast is not. Highs-low 40's  Lows - around 32. Just have to be patient and wait a bit longer.Anyhow, it will give me some time to get over this sinus infection.Looking forward to your next report.

Being from Cincinnati, I appreciate your replies. It sure helps me plan my trip to Indian. With the warm weather coming, it will be a little while for more good ice.Our furnace quit last night so I have some work to do anyhow!!! GLAD YOU HAD FUN !!!

Sorry to hear that. I will be making a trip up every weekend and making reports for the winter open water or ice. I'm off to loramie again this morning for the remainder of what good ice is left !
