I took a skunk in the area of Brown's Island on Saturday.  20 plus inches of ice right there, but there was some open water north of there in the narrows.

I wouldn't drive around in a vehicle up there.  That's not good.  I wouldn't drive a vehicle on the ice now personally - 4 wheeler or sled, but not a truck.

Hey Mike, did you see that van Saturday afternoon driving down just as we were leaving? Had a great time, thanks for the use of your camp. Hope your arm is better.

I didn't see the van, but I don't doubt it! 
The arm is a mess, no idea what I did - "auger elbow" or something.   ;D

Welcome to the Shanty Seth - you belong here!  If you have trouble posting it, e-mail it to me and I'll do it for you.  The second one you got right at dusk was a nice one too.  Too bad we didn't have a camera then.
