marcicatWhen we moved into our new house last summer, we asked the previous owners if the river freezes enough to walk on in the winter. (The answer was a resounding 'sometimes.') I immediately thought it would be Super Great to walk across from one side to the other. (Why? I have no idea; it's just one of those things.)
And *this* winter, the answer is YES. The river is frozen enough that people are out on it, and I can confirm that it is indeed Super Great to walk across.
Other Super Great discoveries:
*You can just stop and take a picture! So easily! (Nothing like your kayak slowly rotating in the wrong direction to make picture taking a challenge.)
*The boundary between water and land is just not (as much) a thing. I was delighted to be able to climb off the ice onto a point of land, cross over the point, and pop back onto the ice on the other side.
*Unlike an ice skating rink, nobody yells at you for wearing shoes on the ice. You can just do it! And slide around!
In conclusion: Super Great.
