Skim ice

Calm winds and cold temperatures have extended the skim ice out from shore. Chipmunks still active. No boat activity on the lake.

Snow time

The first snow of the fall is here. The mill hill can become icy. Hunting season for deer with guns ends this week. Up to now, only 2 deer shot on our road, but the Bear Club has at least 3. No moose shot in our area. Ministry has been around collecting brain samples for chronic wasting disease. Two house cats in the area. One is black and white and has been around the cottages on the island. The other is a beautiful cinnamon colour with yellow eyes seen around Tusk Road. Many racoons, make sure all your possible entrance to your cottage are sealed. I have been informed that a cottage in our association has been sold and a vacant lot north of the causeway, not part of our association, is for sale.
