Have you taken a walk in the Northwoods when it’s really quiet? I don’t mean when it’s kind of quiet, I mean really quiet.

If you have, you’ve been in the Northwoods in the Spring. When winter’s grip is loosened, thesnow is quietly melting, the song birds have yet to spring into their rhapsodies and the summer home owners have yet to appear to put in their docks, rafts and boats. It’s really quiet. You can walk in the greatest forest the continent has to offer, looking for antlers shed by the deer, wondering how the forest creatures survived the winter.

It’s that time when it’s warm in the sunlight, but still cold in the shadows. The Spring air is dry, the ice is still on the lake and you can smell the pine needles and the humus as the earth is springing back to life. It’s this time of the year that you appreciate your property in the Northwoods the most.

While you love fall and its color, summer with its pleasant long evenings and winter with its long, star filled nights, it’s Spring you love the best. You anticipate putting the boat in. You dream of that first walleye and of opening day of musky season.

If you would like to find your own piece of this Northwoods paradise please don't hesitate to visit my main webpage for lots of information about available wooded, lakefront or river front acreage.

Now who can I get to help move this thing?
The Smells and Sounds of Early Spring in Northern Wisconsin and Upper Michigan

You love sitting on the front porch soaking in the sunlight. And you appreciate owning lake front property as you watch the mating rituals of the mergansers, blacks, woodies and mallards. It’s too late to ice-fish and too early to jig for walleyes. It’s warm in the daylight and still cold at night. It becomes greener by the day. The tree frogs sing a raucous tune that, somehow, leads to the continuation of their species. The Pileated woodpeckers beat a loud, hollow knocking that attracts their mates. And, you inspect the cabin making a list of the numerous projects you’ll have to take on as the days continue to lengthen and warm.

You can see the chipmunks arousing from their nap, hear grouse drumming, watch the deer loose their dark coats and turn their warm weather auburn. You can almost see the ice recede from the shoreline – you watch and swear you see it move. And then one morning the lake is clear of ice. Ah, the lake in Spring.
