I was just west of Brainerd/Baxter on Hwy 210 and one of the lake homes had a Clam set up just off shore. I'm guessing it was just for show, but it won't be long!

I only see a few hours this week that are supposed to be above freezing, so we definately should be making some ice by the end of the week.  You wont catch me trying to be the first one out.
