Sorry no picture I was just too slow.

My early season fishing trips are always eventful if a little on the chilly side. Yesterday I eased down the river into White Oak Pond not in any hurry just looking around and seeing where trees had fallen into the river or any other changes of note. As I took the engine out of gear, I noticed a huge splash which of course caught my eye immediately. A few seconds later, another one in a line to the edge of the water was hard to tell what it might be so I stood up to see if it surfaced again.

Enjoyed a delightful afternoon with this couple from Texas on a Guided Scenic Maine Coast Boat Trip for my first trip of my 40^th season. Breezy for a fact, chilly in the wind but sunny and warm most of the time on the water. Even got to see an eagle sitting in the nest!

Spring (well sort of) is very slowly coming to mid coast Maine. Snow is mostly gone except where the plows piled it near the driveway. Frost is working its way out of the ground which means frost heaves and soft lawns! We have had a few warmish days and firewood consumption has dropped off significantly. The solar panels generate about three times the power we use on a nice day, I still find that amazing.
