Cool Clarity, Watermelon Rainbows, and other Big News

Next Swims: Friday 4pm? Saturday 8am (me), Sunday 7am, other weekend times TBD, post to the comments if you have a preferred time

Last Swim: Friday 6am, Thursday PM

Air Temp: low 60s
Water Temp: 48.5
Clarity: near perfect
Waves: like glass
Kru: Showgirl, Pool Noodle, with Linda the Lamprey and and Diablo on the early shift, Magic Mike and four-legged companion on shore support

the watermelon rainbow shoes persist

PN and I were headed down the ramp as Linda was heading up. She was suffering from frozen lip syndrome, so chit-chat was minimal. (That's foreshadowing.)

The lake was like glass and the beach empty. The logs floating inside the rock piles have either traveled elsewhere or been dragged to shore.

We suited up before taking the temperature, which, if you really want to swim, is probably a good idea.  48.5. 

In spite of yesterday's rain, the water was nearly completely clear and totally flat. I swam to the kayak and PN went further.

When we got back to shore Magic Mike and his dog showed up.

Here's the Big News:  the Klode parking lot is open for business, so keep it safe up there.
