Springasm

Yes, I just made up that word. The somewhat sense of accomplishment of surviving another winter and knowing the warmer days are coming. We did it! In celebration of the occasion, I dipped the kayak in at Central Park in Milford Saturday. It was just me and the many, many birds. There is still some ice to the west of the park near the dam. I tried to get cocky and float up on the ice as it wasn't even a centimeter thick. I had visions of me tipping in so I wisely backed off the ice portion ever so slowly. No fish were to be had but that's okay.
Hello Spring!
