We hope everyone had a great Christmas.

We checked ice this morning and there is 12" over most of our area. However, the south area where we had 6-7" earlier, there is still 10". In addition, there are still the cracks out in front. In order to get to Walleye Drive, we have to cross two cracks, one of which is 12-14" across with 3" of ice on it. We flooded it today and we will flood it again on Thursday. Then we will bridge it and try pulling some rentals across it. If things go well, we may be pulling private houses by Friday. I do not know what I will do about driving your own cars yet. Those cracks are dangerous after dark if you do not stay on the marked roads, especially with no snow to define roads.

I hope to have people out by New Years which is certainly an improvement over last year.
