spring break up

spring break up is finally upon us here in the interior. the snow is gone, and last of the ice is heading down the chena, or melting into itself. i spent some time tonight down by the slough- looking for orphan fragments of ice that have defied the recent fifty degree days. i found this small specimen under a bridge close to home. he was hung up on a stick, or shallow bit, and was fortunate to be out of the sun. by tomorrow he will be a forgotten chill in the water, and summer will be just that much closer.
