Another fantastic day - I'd have to say literally best swim of the season. Pretty much everyone who swam today later said to one or more people "That was really great!"

The greatest thing about today's swim was the super clarity of the water - not only could you see the bottom while swimming, you could see your shadow on the lake bottom.  Don't think I've ever seen that before in Lake Michigan.  

So guest star, Mary Jo, had some cultural learnings about Killepitsch, from relatives in Bavaria.  In Bavarian street slang, if you say "That's Killepitsch" it means something like "that's totally insane" or "that's ridiculous".  

'Nuff said, right?  We are the O.G.
