Living on the edge

Day 47

I couldn't believe what I saw this afternoon when I went to the lake.  There are very few bob houses on the lake because the ice just barely caught.  Yet, this man, had his bob house about 20' from the open water, which has a current. He had one tip-up near his house, and as you can see, he was only a few feet from the open water, with his arm in another hole, setting up a tip up.  I don't know why he wasn't sitting in that little boat like sled that is beside the bob house! Plus, it was freezing!
I was grateful that I was taking this photo sitting in my car.  I kept wandering what I would do if he fell through the ice.  But, as I was leaving, he stood up and went into the bob house! Whew!
