Don't wear your rings in the lake

It was a sad day at the lake today.  During my open water swim, the lake swallowed my diamond wedding ring.  It just slipped off my finger and was gone.  I've always taken my rings off before my swim, but was running late tonight and simply forgot.

Amazing.  Sorry to hear about your ring.  I lost my wedding ring in a lake in NY 25 years ago.  It was probably more difficult for me to have to tell Kerri than anything.  Memories are the important thing.
