VERY wise decision. The ice keeps on retreating from the shoreline with every passing hour. It would make me very nervous bringing my own kids out to the island right now.

This is looking out from Meredith Neck from a friends house. He has neighbors on either side with bubblers. A few weeks ago we were walking around out here and sledding on to the ice. Not now
