We’re on the eve of the Chicago Triathlon, so I didn’t expect to see some of our regulars out this morning. Nevertheless, we had a great turnout, and those who made it out at 6:00am enjoyed a calm, 75F lake with astonishing views of the rising sun to the east.
I won’t spend much time describing things. You can just check out the images below to see what you missed out on!

OK OK OK I WILL ADMIT – MY ALARM RANG AT 4:30 AM AND I WAS SO WIPED OUT THAT I COULD BARELY TURN IT OFF… I DID MAKE IT AT 8:45 AND HURRICANE IRENE WAS CHURNING UP THE WATER TO 3 TO 4 FOOT CHOP ! THE WATER HUNG AT 76 DEGREES AND WAS STILL FUN TO SWIM IN. AND THE COOL LAKE BREEZE MADE IT FEEL LIKE A PERFECT FALL DAY.
STILL NO LUCK FINDING THE OWNER OF THE WEDDING BAND >>>>>
