Swim lessons were canceled due to to much ice in our pool. I am still looking for a zamboni driver so we can ice skate the lake

i vote that Steve and Ann will need to swim four ladders in only a swim suit and goggles when they returns ,in order for him to be allowed to swim with the ice monsters this winter. we cannot allow our members to sneak away for a warm water swim while we are here enjoying the cool fresh water !

it was a perfect day for perhaps our last fall swim of 2011.
Marlena was able to show up to enjoy the sunshine and watch us swim and eat some fresh pineapple before getting back to her studies for a final exam. as you know winter arrives on the 21st.
i hope all of you enjoy a very merry Christmas with all of your family and friends and that all of your dreams will come true in the new Year 2012.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2012

Miss you guys! Just not as tough as you, but will be out again when it goes back up to 45. I saw a random Lake Monster at Fullerton swimming in just swim trunks on Saturday Dec.10th as I was running on the path at 9am. I screamed and yelped and the older man was totally jazzed up. I love that…bare chest and all in 37 degree water and 21 degree air temp. WOW.
