Got to brag for a second
images.obesityhelp.com/uploads/profile/740747/albums/78674/I MG_0010.JPGSo doing my open water swim today I realize and remember why those of us in Michigan live here:
For those who have never seen one of the great lakes they are truly awesome -- like the ocean but freshwater. Went in today and the water was surprisingly calm and was shocked at how clear the water was. Never really got over 5' - 6' and I'm sure if we had gone to 15' we would've been able to see the bottom too. As we were swimming there was quite a bit of boat traffic and even a freighter went by. Just way too cool, almost makes up for our 24% unemployment rate :(
(if somebody can tell me how to paste an image in her I've got 2 of the area I was swimming in (not mine though -- will have to take some pictures the next time I go swimming)
