It’s open water on Crystal Lake.
Yesterday I noticed that most of the ice was gone.
This is the second year in a row in which a warm January has led to the ice melting.
After a low overflow during a dry fall, December’s snow and January’s rain has resulted in a lot of water pouring over the outlet.
I took some photos this morning on the way home from taking my son to South School.
Can you see why people love this neighborhood?
