    At 2:00 the first barge passed our view. The picture is just below Tepiota Point on Pool 4. The word is he is only authorized to travel during the day so he may not bust through Lake Pepin till Friday. In most years, this signal rapidly warming water. I don’t think it will help this year.

    Finally! That should wake George and the crew up at #3!

    She’s been a long long ice season.

    My parent live on L.Pepin and my mom just called and said the 1st barge just went upstream on its way to RW.
