the birds are back
Saw a few flocks of geese fly over,heading north over Lake Superior, high in the sky on their journey to Canada.
Got a nice little taste of Spring the last couple days. Calm as could be, a few wonderful days of sun and temps without a chill in the air.
It all came to a crashing halt yesterday with a temp drop of 20 degrees in 12 minutes in some places, according to the NWS Marquette.
Such is life on Lake Superior this time of year. When the winds change, it can be a shocking experience. I remember one particular time out at Presque Isle, the parking lot was full with cars and people enjoying the day, then the winds shifted. Kids in shorts and t shirts screamed at the swift change in temps(for real) and ran into the heated pavilion. The parking lot cleared in about 10 mins, lol.
I took my dog for a walk on the beach yesterday and it was comical to watch her barking at the melting and moving icebergs. Makes me wonder what goes on in those doggie brains sometimes? Ah,,, Spring has sprung.
