Default Cold!

We got snow today, woo hoo, a bit of insulation on the screens now. Water
temp up to 36.1F! Outside temp up to 24F. I have a nice ice tunnel where
the water enters the top pond at the surface. Bet it melts by morning.
Pretty cool looking, wish I could have taken a picture but doubt it would
have shown thru the screening. Tunnel was about a foot long.

I hope everyone else's ponds are doing okay in the northern sections of the
country. ~ jan

Wow. We got almost an inch and a half of rain yesterday. That's
almost as much as we got all last month. I'm extatic. That's over 3
inches already this month and December isn't half over. The frogs
sure are happy, and they aren't being shy about expressing themselves,
either.
