Here it goes... This photo was taken from Beaver cottage's dock this morning, about 10 a.m. The ice has all broken into big floating pans, and is moving.
Where it rubs onto the shore, or a dock, or even another pan of ice, it sounds like wind chimes.
This picture was taken at 3 p.m. on the same day. Gone. Now THAT should turn your thoughts to summer!
Well - to be honest - it is not totally gone. There is still some piled up in the far corner of the bay, over by Chateau. My guess is that will be all gone by tomorrow morning. Or even later this evening. It's a hot, sunny day out there. I've been working on gardens and spring clean up. This will be a record for the ice leaving Bondi Bay. Since Grandfather started keeping a record in 1908, the earliest it has cleared our bay is March 31st. By the by, to qualify as cleared of ice, the entire bay, including Haystack, out beyond Fire Island, must be free and clear.
