Next swim: Tuesday afternoon, 4:00? 4:30?, Wednesday 6am
Last Swim: Tuesday 6am
Air temp: ~70 degrees, sunny
Water temp: approaching 50 (from below)
Clarity: Hand barely visible at the end of my arm. Diving under water is a very cold, very dark experience.
Waves: calm with very gentle swells
Kru: North Shore Nancy, Rachel, Magic Mike, Sandy(?). Diablo on the early shift (he might have had accompaniment, not sure).
This morning was at once a harbinger of summer and a reminder that we are still hanging onto spring. I woke up for the first time since fall feeling hot and a little uncomfortable, glad for the ceiling fan in my room. It never really cooled off much last night, in the air. The water, on the other hand, managed to cool off. Rachel had a thermometer that did not reach 50 degrees. A good day for neoprene.
It is my intention to get a swim in at this time regularly. I know Eric (Brick?) has a group he brings down at 7:30 fairly regularly. And don't forget, there are evening swims as well. It was great to see people at the weekend swims! It really did feel like the beginning of summer. Perhaps the lady of the lake will embrace summer soon. It was certainly looking pretty good over the weekend! But she is fickle.
Who needs 80 degree pools, when we have this big beautiful lake, with natural social distancing?
See you at the rock piles!
