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

Breakups are hard ... but saying goodbye to scenes like this for another year are especially tough ;-)

... während der TV-Lebenshilfe-Serie: "Hilfe, mein Kind nörpelt".
Heute zu den Fragen:
"Nörpeln, nur eine pubertäre Randerscheinung?
Wie ratsam ist die Nörpelschutzimpfung?"
Verbindlichen Dank dir, lieber Klaus, genannt "Objektkontrast" www.flickr.com/photos/tykle/ ,

A pair of people having an emotionally charged conversation. Taken this winter - only just got around to processing.
Looking good in spite of a broken heart with items from Designer Showcase. For more info and links, see my Blog ~ aznanasfandangles.blogspot.com/2018/02/valentines-breakup...
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.
Breakup of a vibrant rainbow.

The breakup with the girl sent me flying through tunnels in my mind wishing i was on a train somewhere in the west by myself watching shooting stars and drinking warm beer.
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 . . .
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.
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.

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.
