For months, many of us have stared at a pristine white sheet of ice, dotted by fishing holes and huts, criss-crossed by the tracks of dozens of sleds. We even witnessed the bizarre sight of a sail boat turned on it's side. Then it turned several shades of grey, as the temperatures warmed, just before the ice out. So it's just darn right refreshing to see the true blue of the lake again -- this time in a beautiful picture taken by Sara Neary, from the east side looking west.

Wow - what a way to start the day, courtesy of Danielle Swinton, who captured this stunning shot at around 8.30 am sitting on the stairs, down to the beach, from the Lake Pardox Club! The view is looking to the east. The image was captured with Danielle's Samsung smartphone.

Lost and Found: Mid April Edition

With the ice out and our Lake back to its unfrozen version -- it means that items that were perfectly content to be going nowhere on the frozen shoreline  -- find themselves freed up and ready for a little exploring. Thus is the case of one Grumman canoe:

"I found a capsized Grumman Aluminum Canoe out in the water this morning. I pulled it up on my ramp going down to the beach. If you know of anyone who lost their canoe, it is at 466 East Shore Road. Thanks, Carl."

And a former Schroon Laker from the class of 1980, is looking for some ld friends. Details, after the jump:
