    Someone had to start it! With all the talk on the General Discussion fourm about the opener, got me thinking about ice out. We’ll use the date announced in the Mille Lace Messenger as the “Official” date. According to my notes, it went out last year on April 22nd.

    So, what’s your guess?

    I’ll take April 15th.

    Bob: Somewhere in a stack of pictures I have a shot of your shoreline from the water. It was quite a eight.

    Not much ice melting today………it’s like a blizzard around the lake today. We picked up a little snow last night and the wind is blowing at 20+mph……

    Even with this cold blast, I’m still sticking with April 9th. I’m optomistic. So sue me.

    I’m going to say April 19th. There’s an awful lot of ice that needs to melt.
