Near Luskville by Wendy Ryan
Ice is on this morning. It finally froze right across the river last night with the colder temperatures. I saw 7 deer on the ice on the Ontario side (slightly down river from Baskin’s Beach). One was lying down resting. I think it had slipped and fallen. It seemed a bit wobbly when it got up.
