Anyone going to Kelly's April 12 for the early bird?

Is Lk. Erie ice free?

Nope....here are pics of some crazies just this past weekend at the islands.

Should be ice free by then. The Island Pirates crew has been getting daily "ice" updates from the locals.

Oh yea!! We could call it the Penguin Run!!

The Donzi's ready.....let's go!

Yea, I just finished welding the ice skirt for the bottom of the boat, I'll need a little help on glueing it on.

I'm there for you pal!

Here you go guys...A real time view of the Great Lakes via satellite!!! Very cool pics of the lakes so you can see where the ice is every day. Just pic a lake and click...
So far Lake Ontario has been ice free for weeks. Erie and Huron has some ice still.

Thanks! Of course all the ice is on our end of the lake! This area is cursed!
