Alas, Poor Bike, We Knew You Well

Sometime between Tuesday and Wednesday, our beloved orphaned bike slipped between the waves and vanished. Speculation has it that the bike will arise again when the Weed harvester seeks it out in the Spring. We look forward eagerly to that day.

Bike Update

For those of you thinking of entering the betting pool on when the bike will sink beneath the waves, there is still time. After three days of increasingly warming temperatures, the bike remains above water. Current air temperature in Findley Lake is 55 degrees. Check out the new photos of the bike, especially the great reflection in the layer of water covering the ice. Yes, it's a gray day but that means a great day to drink coffee, make soup, and maybe venture out to take down the tree ladder stand at the back of our property. Lots to accomplish indoors too. Good news yesterday is that we made progress getting the pellet stove back into use. Did a major clean out of the exhaust which seems to have helped some. Construction/reconstruction continues around the lake at the various houses. Hope to see the new siding colors soon. They will be an odd but welcomed form of Spring flowers.
