In spite of the dire warnings of high winds and waves, seven of us showed up at L1 to take our chances on the lake being somewhat swimmable. As it turned out, it was quite calm with the water temperature coming in at a pleasant 61.8F.
The out-and-back to Oak Street Beach was slightly easier on the return leg due to a northbound wind and current. But there were no real waves or chops to contend with while out in the water.
We didn’t get much of a sunrise since we had a wall of clouds out on the eastern horizon. But the sun finally came out just as we finished up.
Overall, a great swim to round out a great summer!
