تجي نخسر بعض مرّه ونكسر حاجز التهديد؟
ولاتسمع (بتخسرني )
ولا أسمع (خسرتيني )...
أفك القيد من إيــدك ومن إيـدي تفك القيـد
تحرّر مابقى منك..
وأحرر [ مابقـى ] فيني

The ice is beginning to breakup along the lake shores. This was a nice sunny day, and the sounds were incredible as thousands of pieces of ice cracked away.
Thanks for looking.
Captured in mid-March, the frozen ice shards form on the Milwaukee River along the Historic Third Ward. This is the a winter breakup before the spring takes over. The cooped up energy of Milwaukee really appears.
Please, come follow me:
Breakups are hard ... but saying goodbye to scenes like this for another year are especially tough ;-)

Not happening quite yet. There are braver people than me on the ice. Way out there is an ice fishing hut.

The Tanana River (meaning 'river trail' in Athacascan, and pronounced 'TA-na-naa') east and north of Tok has not quite let go of it's winter ice, though much of the river downstream from here to the Yukon River is running ice free.
As you can see by lots of tracks, this river is an important 'highway' in both summer and winter, for travel both upstream and down, to places not served by a roadway. River travel is regulated by the Dept of Transportation, in much the same way as conventional roads.

"Nörpeln, nur eine pubertäre Randerscheinung?
Wie ratsam ist die Nörpelschutzimpfung?"

Breakup of a vibrant rainbow.
A few minutes, and a few miles previous of "Morning Storm"
Curves adjustment and more of a square crop.
This is taken right off Front Street in Kotzebue, the sound is breaking up and floating out to sea. It's really quite amazing to witness . . .
The City of Arcadia is the county seat for DeSoto County. It is centrally located between Orlando, Ft. Myers; Sarasota and Lake Okeechobee at the crossroads of US 17 and State Route 70.
Arcadia is famous throughout Florida for its historic downtown antique district. Additionally, on the fourth Saturday of each month, vendors from surrounding locations take over our streets with even more wares and precious finds. Tucked between the shops, you'll have the chance to enjoy cafes, home cooking, a tea room and even an old fashion ice cream parlor, complete with homemade delicious flavors, sundaes and shakes.
The Arcadia All-Florida Championship Rodeo is held in March, the Annual Watermelon Festival in May at the height of the harvesting season, and car shows, parades, and special events take place throughout the year.
According to The Atlas of Florida, "The Rev. James Madison ("Boss") Hendry (1839–1922) named the town in honor of Arcadia Albritton (1861–1932), a daughter of Thomas H. and Fannie (Waldron) Albritton, pioneer settlers. Arcadia had baked him a cake for his birthday and he appreciated it so much that he named the city after her."
In 1886, transportation improved in Arcadia when the Florida Southern Railway (later the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad) was built through Arcadia on its way from Bartow to Punta Gorda. The railway caused Arcadia to grow significantly, which led to Arcadia becoming incorporated a year later. A second railroad line, the Charlotte Harbor and Northern Railway (later the Seaboard Air Line Railroad), was built through Arcadia from 1907 to 1910 on its way from Mulberry to Boca Grande. Both lines have since been consolidated into a single line by CSX with the Seaboard line surviving north of Arcadia and the Atlantic Coast Line surviving to the south. Arcadia was also served by the short-lived East and West Coast Railway which connected Arcadia with Bradenton from 1915 to 1934.
During the late 19th century Arcadia was the county seat of what would become many counties. In 1921 legislation enacted called for Arcadia to remain the county seat of DeSoto County and resulted in the creation of the present-day counties of Charlotte, Hardee, Glades and Highlands. Prior to this breakup Arcadia's population had grown considerably, with over 1,000 permanent residents and 3,000 square miles (7,800 km2) for ranching.
On Thanksgiving Day in 1905 the town was destroyed by a large-scale fire that originated from a mid-town livery stable. The fire was exacerbated because the town did not have a working water system or fire department. The estimated monetary damage was $250,000, but there was no loss of life. Much of the business district was not spared. It would be years before the town recovered.
Oak Street is the "main street" in Arcadia. The downtown is far more elaborate than neighboring counties' downtown areas, as Arcadia is older and was their county seat prior to the formation of their present counties. Arcadia is also home to many early 20th century homes, houses of worship and several historic public buildings.
From 1917 to 1922, Arcadia was the home of Carlstrom Field, a grass airfield of the U.S. Army Air Service named for deceased aviation pioneer Victor Carlstrom. Carlstrom Field was used for pilot training both during and after World War I. In May 1941 the site again became an airfield for military primary flight training, operated by the Embry–Riddle Aeronautical Institute (now Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University). Carlstrom Field, one of several satellite fields in the Fort Myers area, also trained pilots for the Royal Air Force until its closing in 1945.
Arcadia's historic buildings include the Johnson-Smith House, William Oswell Ralls House and Micajah T. Singleton House. Also, approximately 3,400 acres which includes the downtown area are part of the Arcadia Historic District.

Doc and I had several things to do in Glennallen this morning, and marveled at how fast the warm temperatures, and stiff breezes from the south - were melting the snow.
Outside of our local bank, the usual "breakup" lake had formed. It is not only large - but pretty darned deep as well. Each spring, Doc and I refer to it as "Wells Fargo Lake".
Sadly - if the melt keeps up at its current rate - there will be massive flooding along all of our rivers. It is something most rural Alaskans think about and prepare for. You must be ready to leave your property at a moment's notice.
Name: Gareth E. Okono
Age: 22
Aliases: Leafdragon, Gary, The Foreign Master, Chi Expert
Nationality: Australian-Canadian born Welsh
Profile: Gareth was a big city kid who often moved around. Born in Wales, he spent 3 years of childhood there, before moving to Australia at 6, staying there for a year until he was 8. His family decided to move to Winnipeg a month later.
Gareth had difficulties and trouble fitting in due to his dyslexia and ADHD, often looked down as a freak. Despite finishing school, he went on to work in a financial office. However, due to his shyness and personality, he was not treated well by his co-workers due to his inability to read or write, and was reduced to being a paper boy, continued to be given more work or being harassed.
However, Gareth managed to make friends with a colleague, Sean, whom he accepted. The two later become close and started dating. One day, Gareth lost control of his powers at home as they activated (accidental green aura generation), was witnessed by Sean. He later told this incident to every colleague, and Gareth was mocked and laughed at for being a powered freak.
Gareth, who finally had enough, accidentally punched Sean in front of his workplace, declaring their relationship an end for betraying him, and quit his job. He later took up Tai Chi classes as a part of his mediation to control his powers, and worked as a courier due to him being familiar with it quickly.
5 months later (after his breakup with Sean) Gareth had already become a small town hero in his city, with his own custom suit and mastering his chi quickly. He was eventually approached by Shotlighter and his crew, who invited him to join their agency and he accepted. With his experienced skills, he dedicated himself to more training and made friends, become social and open.
Since then, he is the team’s resident brawler, hacker, mediator, anger management coach and occasional medic of his team, helping to hunt down the rogue Exiled Spectres.
Powers and abilities: Chi manipulation, able to heal himself, people and most materials, but cannot not bring them back to life. Gareth uses this power carefully to avoid being used as a target/pawn/weapon. He can generate an aura by focusing, and lately can do this without having immense stress from his training. Through chi harnessing, he is able to increase his partial strength, sense, solidify. Gareth is well prepared when it comes to mediation and martial arts, thus allowing him to be one of the strongest members.
Equipment: Custom suit mixed with new mesh provided by the agency, self woven. Carries some daggers/guns/weapons and is knowledgeable in ancient Chinese history, though has moved on to other lores. Visor that aids him for hacking, analysis and reading.
Personality: Seen as shy and weak, but with a brave heart that he doesn’t really show. After his powers developed and showed control over chi mastery, he is focused, positive despite being awkward sometimes with his inclined personality and jokes.
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time, walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme. You know my love goes with you as your love stays with me, it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea, but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie, your eyes are soft with sorrow.
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

I thought the cracks made an interesting pattern. It was also interesting to see those large plates of surface ice rise and fall as the waves passed invisibly beneath them. The breakup of harbour ice is an indication that winter is finally coming to an end in Toronto. This was taken on the vernal equinox.

Why is it called breakup?
The term 'breakup' in Alaska, which refers to spring, is unique to the region. It stems from the process of ice literally 'breaking up' and snow melting and turning to slush. In winter, rivers freeze into solid sheets of ice, sometimes strong enough to hold vehicles. But when 'breakup' arrives, that ice melts and starts breaking away into pieces. This not only has a literal meaning but also signifies a change in lifestyle for Alaskans. It's time to 'break up' with their favorite winter activities like skiing, snowshoeing, and skating, and embrace new pastimes as the ice and snow melt.
As early as the last week of March, Alaska experiences a weather pattern unlike any other, a blend of winter and summer. However, unlike other states further south, the snow in Alaska doesn't disappear overnight. It takes its time to melt away, making way for new growth. This gradual transition, this unique blend of winter and summer, is what makes 'breakup' a more fitting term to describe this season in Alaska.
