The ice went out on the Rum River yesterday. Finally! I've been checking out the river every day for the past two weeks expecting it to break up and flow away. The ice doesn't disappear all at once. The ice from a straight part of the river stays intact and gets caught up in the river bend. Eventually the pressure of the water and the warm temperatures crack the ice into smaller chunks that flow away with the stream. I'm glad to see it go.
