Have not seen a snowmobile out on the lake now for weeks, until Saturday, March 18, when a lone snowmobiler, going about 25-mph showed up. As it approached Horse Island and flasher buoy #3, it suddenly made an abrupt 180-degree u-turn in the slushy snow, and reversed direction. Probably, must have got a fast heads-up seeing the small area of open water up ahead, and larger area of grey, soft, slushy looking water.

That was a surprise to see that.....I was thinking.....will he be going in for an icy, cold swim, or what?
