The people that come to save you make you leave everthing on the ice and only take people.

It would be a great place to travel to- Just a few hours up I-75. May is the big month to visit. If you time the bird migration just right, people have told me that the trees are "dripping" with colorful warblers, orioles, and others.<BR/><BR/>James-<BR/><BR/>Yep. They built a bridge with wooden pallets across a big crack. The wind blew the ice, and the pallets fell in the water. The fisher people were then trapped.<BR/><BR/>TomTom Arbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919759721690261620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21247637.post-60571564012441570542009-02-08T08:57:00.000-05:002009-02-08T08:57:00.000-05:00I knew lots of people that ice fished when I lived...I knew lots of people that ice fished when I lived in MN. Doesn't seem like something I would do this far south, although it has been cold recently...<BR/>Apparently it wasn't the thickness of the ice that got them but the fact that they bridged a crack that then further separated with the wind. Not a good idea.James R Knight, MDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00245811936304443870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21247637.post-40029279747277622292009-02-08T08:49:00.000-05:002009-02-08T08:49:00.000-05:00From what little I know and from the post you wrot...From what little I know and from the post you wrote that area might be the place for Buckeyes or anybody else to take photographs of birds. I don't know if I will be able to get out and about this summer (I hope and pray I will) but if I do I would like to go to a place like this for a change to just my backyard wildlife. <BR/><BR/>Interesting post. I had not heard anything about this accident.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
