River Walk


Yesterday was warm and sunny, so Terry and I headed to Point Gatineau to enjoy a walk along the Ottawa River.


The air always feels fresher here!


There was a lot of ice on the river when we arrived, but it was moving  along quickly.


Half an hour later, when we retraced our path, the river was mostly clear.


We walked quickly to get a better look at a "bump" on the ice in the distance, to see what it was... An abandoned ice fishing hut,  perhaps?


We should have brought binoculars!


It's too early to know if the river will flood this spring. It depends on how much water and ice come down the river from rivers up north. An ice jam could also cause a flood.

Hopefully, all will be well!
