History repeating itself?

I'm back up in Seattle. They don't have any snow around, and haven't had recently. It is even a about 15 degrees warmer at night, and 15-20 degrees warmer during the daytime. Today I rode down from Queen Ann to Green Lake and back. Green Lake, like most of the lakes in the area, indeed, Puget Sound itself, was scoured from the landscape by the Vashon Glaciel Ice Sheet over 50,000 years ago. Today it looked as if it might be returning to those ancient times.

The lake was completely frozon over for the 4th time in 101 years.  The ice thickness was about 6" where I took this photo, but thinned to perhaps 2" on the far shore, where it was subject to the afternoon sun.  Police and fire where there to remind folks that the park was asking people to not walk on the ice for safety reasons.

It was nice to be out riding the real bike again.
