Toonoc--Good question, don't know, only can guess; but we've got time on our side now, with the month of march now looming its face above the horizon.
The ice is still thick in the upper pond: north of beach and Gardners' island the ice is about seven or so inches thick. We busted yesterday up there, as did some of the diggers--we need some North wind now to get it moving down the pond.
This past week wasn't bad for us, good and warm. But my mind is going some crazy with all the oysters that we're harvesting, oysters upon oysters---I am tired of oyster picking now.
