STURGEON BAY, Wis. — The U.S. Coast Guard and several other agencies rescued 66 people stranded on ice floes in a bay in northeastern Wisconsin.
Ice boats and helicopters were used to bring the people who were ice fishing to safety Thursday in Door County. Three separate ice floes broke away after cracks developed between the shore and groups of people, the Coast Guard said.

Now think back to the days before cellphones and imagine yourself on one of those floes.
Prepared?
I wonder how many cars, if any, are out there.
If some went into the drink, some tow companies are going to have some good paydays.
