Full Moon Ice

  Chloe (our Akita) and I went for a walk tonight,  nice out, the wind finally dying down.  As we walked past the bakery the pond ice started, boom, crack, hiss, then another boom, Chloe let out a single barely audible, not sure what the heck that was "woof".  I told her it was OK, and we moved on not looking back.  It's been to many years since I heard the music of the winter ice,  I remember being out on the ice hearing the eerie booms, pops, shattering glass sounds the ice would make trying to imagine how this could possibly be safe to walk on.

We'll have to go skating, or maybe just have a bonfire down by the pond.

  We walked on across the intersection headed east for the river, the river is a destination not always achieved as Chloe is getting on in years and her hips don't always go as far as she'd like.  So we walk until she starts to tire then we turn around and walk home again.
