Will summer ever come???

I sometimes wonder if these short “breaks” in the weather just happen to fool us into thinking that spring is just around the corner.  I just received an email from a friend showing a picture of 2 deer walking through someone’s back yard and all you could see was their heads sticking up out of the snow.  The caption was something like “yep, I think spring is right around the corner now”.  It made me chuckle because that’s not too far from the situation I’m looking at out my kitchen window.  Hard to believe that just a few weeks from now we really might get spring!  So far, the weatherman has just been toying with our minds up here.  This winter in Two Harbors, MN the bay never iced over.  That could mean an early start to the shipping season – we all hope so.    Of course, along with marine traffic, comes the chatter over the VHF Marine Radios on board the vessels.  Once again reminding us of the importance of the communication devices so vital to the safety and well being of our guests on board as well as others.
