ABC Wednesday: I is for Ice Fishing

John and I drove over to the South Beach of Willoughby Lake for photos of the cliffs and we found a small city on the ice. There were trucks, cars, snow machines and many people on the ice. The ice shacks have to come off the lake the last weekend of March. John says that in New Hampshire the shacks are called bob houses and have to be removed on the same date. Thank you for stopping by!

  7. Must be very cold. We used to live in Boston, but I do not know that New Hampshire can be this cold.
