Believe it or not, the swim area at Ladder 1 was quite calm and sunny at 6:00am! Since I had forgotten my thermometer, I would estimate the lake temperature at 67F with some definite cold spots showing up farther away from the shore. But I went sans wetsuit and was able to do an out-and-back mile to Oak Street Beach without being uncomfortable.
We had quite a turnout at L1. Carol, Michelle, and Marion showed up as well as a bunch of new swimmers – Alya, Deborah, and Zach (if I messed up your names, be sure to let me know and I’ll correct this post ASAP!). Normally, I’d get all this information when I snapped the traditional L1 shot of everyone. However, my camera would not come alive again despite my best hopes – so nothing I shot came out :(. But the new one should be here any day, so we should be back in business by our next meetup.
Hey Steve it was Deborah and Alla if I’m spelling that right.
