Andy Warhol predicted everyone would get 15 minutes of fame.
I got 15 seconds, maybe less, as the picture you see was flashed on the Channel Five 10 O’clock News screen by Brant Miller after his weather report.
While me name and hometown were in the upper left hand corner of the television screen, I’m sure that most people were looking at the golfers on the water covered Crystal Lake ice last Sunday.
The three photos were shown. All were of ice.

Driving down Route 14 from Deep Cut Road after leaving BSA Camp Lakota, it was like being in a modern Narnia with the White Witch in control.
The trees were covered with ice.
The sun was shining brightly.
After we passed the place with the April 21, 1967, tornado crossed the highway, I rolled down the window and started taking pictures.
This was one of the better ones.
That’s how cold it was right after my son decided not to zip on the bottoms of his convertible pants.

This water is turning back into ice.
After taking my son to school this morning, I decided to see if Crystal Lake were frozen.
I knew it was at the outlet to Cress Creek, so I drove to the Gate 13 Beach.
You can see that the ice is creeping out into the lake but only a couple of scores of feet from shore so far.

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.
Cress Creek is broad again.

And, in keeping with my recent icy “Messages of the Day,” this is one on ice.
A fisherman’s shack, actually two, on the West End of Crystal Lake.
Even though the Crystal Lake Park District sign near the ice cleared for skating at West Beach says,
