Forgot to add: that’s an otter slide by the way if y’all weren’t sure.  They’ve been around the house all winter this year.

Looks like the snow is still armpit deep.

I have a feeling my camping trip in your backyard in a week or so will be some effort.

Hoping some warmer temps knock some of it down, and firms up the snow for trekking.

Plan on morning travel before the temps rise.

You might get your wish. After the next couple of days there should be lots of melting going on.

Here is a pileated woodpecker pic from the falls area.

Down in St Paul recently and went out to the Como Conservatory. I don't know what these birds were and I think they snuck in the door nobody was looking.

I think they may have put some birds in there to pick off some of the bugs that might cause issues with some of the plants.

But this isn't up at the lake right.  Still snow up there?

No it's at home in cold spring. Yea there's still a pile up there. Think they just got another 6-8 inches last Wednesday??
