October Ice Run.......9/30/09

We were a day from October, but 4 weeks from the last ice run....a weird Calendar thing that works out later in the year when we switch to 5 weeks.

 

 

It was threatening to snow.....in September!

 

 

 

 

 

No Assistant, so I was pretty much on my own. Not exactly OSHA approved, but, the ice has to go through.....

 

Ten pound slabs are pretty easy, if tedious, to carry.

 

 

We had quite a bit of ice left.....at least 550 pounds. Temp great.....

 

We added our 1500...

 

 

We left over 2000 pounds there.....enough for the switch to five weeks for the next run.

 

 

 

Again, some great crystals.....lotsa moisture this year.

 

We left Bredo all ready for Halloween......

He'll have a great time coming as himself!
