Description
After completing #2492 "Snow in the Shade at Jim Day Rapids", I still had some time and energy to paint. The sun felt good and the sounds of spring inspired me to paint on.
The Singleton ice still dominated the western basin of the lake. The ice in the shallow eastern basin had melted in early March. Sometimes the thicker ice of the west basin break up into large chunks and pile through Jim Day Rapids in jostling, tumbles. This type of breakup is typically preceded by a heavy rain or rapid melt that raises the water level and floats the large ice chunks free from their shoreline anchor.
In other years like 2020, the ice simply melted in place. The water level of the lake stayed the same or lower as when the ice formed. The ice remained anchored to the shoreline in 2020 and melted in place. The grey ice would just one day be gone as the water of Singleton Lake did the vertical, density flip with a mean temperature of 3.7 Celsius or thereabouts.

Beyond beautiful...I really like the contrasting oranges and blues plus the magnificent brushwork, composition and abstract forms. Yet another plein air capsule in time with the freshness of nature preserved! Yay, Phil Chadwick! L/F/Pinterest

So very kind of you Sunny. Thank you. Yes, these are time capsules of memories. The stories are written down so they will not be lost... maybe shared with the grandchildren at some time in the future. It is another beauty of a day... time to paint the sky.
