Surprisingly the water conditions weren't too bad Thursday morning...although a little bit on the cool side. This morning's Captn-o-meter reading of 66.6 was a little bit of rude awakening compared to the 70+ degree water we've grown accustomed to...but in retrospect it's more in line with what the water temp is traditionally this time of year. (Coincidentally, not only was the water temp reading at 6am this morning 66.6 this morning's swim was also our 66th swim of the season....)
If you're worried that our days of 70+ degree water are nearing an end...don't be. According to the temperature maps there's still plenty of warm water in the lake both above and below the lake surface. With today's forecast calling for temps in the low 80's there a good chance our streak of consecutive 70+ degree days (...only 1 day in the past 3 weeks has seen a recorded water temp below 70...) may even continue with this evenings 6PM swim!

Heard Shorewood's American Legion is better than Hubbard and has a good beer selection. What time? I have a few friends who will be joining us...
