Best quote of the day from the King: "First best swim of the summer." Water was clean, and refreshing. I was thinking as I swam along today in the sunshine and clear water, of Sheryl Crow's song "I Wanna Soak Up the Sun." I went looking for the video (which I'd never watched before), and actually listened/read the lyrics. I have even greater respect for the song than I did previously. Fun, happy summer anthem. We who swim the Lake are really lucky!
