Today was another beautiful, sunny day at the beach. It was a wee bit of a struggle against the waves to mudslide, but we did it. I expected the return trip to be easier than it was.
I hope everyone is enjoying the ToAD bike races around the area. Shorewood was last night, and there are more the next three days (Bayview, Downer, Tosa), here's the schedule:

Lorraine is planning to swim tonight at 5PM. If that time doesn't work for you, post alternatives to the blog coments.
I didn't see Mr. Stealthy, aka Diablo, at the beach or in the water this morning, but that doesn't mean he wasn't there.
Today is my swim-a-versary-- the anniversary of my first swim with the Kru back in 2010. Lake Michigan swimming will change your life. For the better, of course.

5 would be too early for Hank and Nancy (not to be confused with Sid and Nancy). But, IF THE BUOY EDGES PAST 65, I may convince the Mister to swim when he gets home from his bike commute. That would put us somewhere between 6 and 630. it would be hard to say no to warm 65+ weather.
It just edged past 65! Gumdrop and I are swimming at 5pm.
showgirl--was it THE swim where you got your nickname as well?
Water was 70 degrees at 5pm according to Gumdrop's duckometer - it was a little colder about a foot down. Gumdrop, Lorraine and Ryan left at 5:15. Itch passed us but we didn't see him til he returned. Two more swimmers came around 6:30 (Hank and Nancy?). There was a slight chop. Water clarity: good. I think 3 skins and 3 suits. And 6 shots thanks to Itch!
Ahhhhhh, your killing me!
70s at 6. Hank and NS Nancy went skin. rolling waves that made it an excellent workout. Thanks to Itch for leaving a couple of shots on shore for us!
That should be "you're" killing me (I thought I would make that correction before Gumdrop did).
