i love this cartoon:

o

on sunday i noticed a hawk just standing out in the fenced yard.  i told kevin, who got the camera and took a few photos.  he quickly realized that the reason the hawk was being so polite in letting him take pictures is because it actually wasn’t the hawk’s good manners, but the fact that it was devouring a mourning dove.

we walked out to look at the lake, which had developed what looked like a long crack in the ice.  it wasn’t actually a crack, but a line where the snow had melted.  it must be a little bit warm under the water.

because it warmed up a little on monday, the line got bigger, going all the way down to the dock.

yesterday, when it got above freezing and all the snow melted, there was a layer of water on top of the ice.  today it’s frozen again and it would probably be a good time to stage some kind of figure-skating show.  if you know of anybody who would want to participate, please let me know.

ok then,
