No ice on my goldfish pond, just a little left on the koi pond. I love not having to use the pond heater, too, Teeemkay! And, temps for the next 10 days have highs above freezing on every day but maybe one. I can handle that. Kind of disappointed in lack of snow so far this year, but I'd rather have an early spring, than a long winter. :)
Oh, last weekend my 6 month old pup Quincy almost did a huge no-no! He was running around outside, still half of the koi pond covered in ice, but probably not more than 1" thick. I called him to come inside, and he was on opposite side of koi pond, other side of the bog. He came toward me, into the bog, and was getting ready to jump on the ice and walk across the pond! Yikes! I went running to the side and called him to come to me, which he did, thankfully. I really did NOT want to have to fish him out of the pond that morning. LOL Guess it would have been a lesson learned, though, at least I would have seen it happen and been able to save him.

I saw the weather channel they were talking about a coastal storm hitting NJ .When I did not hear because the phone rang .It looks pretty but as long as it does not stay it looks prettier

Got to 48 here today and it's supposed to get to 60 on the weekend.
Normal highs during the day here are below freezing.
Anyone want to buy a new snowblower - only used once?

I think I see snow falling at your place again addy. Missy has a snowman face.
If it gets too deep she will have to make tunnels :)

@MitchM I wish I needed a snow blower! I'm sure you will need it eventually :D
