I haven't been swimming regularly since late March, but last week I hopped in the lake and went for a short swim (~1100m). As I was arriving back at the beach, look what I found. It was folded up in about four feet of water. From the looks of the bill it was underwater for awhile.
That got me thinking... I wonder what other people have found while swimming that they didn't expect. Baby Ruths in pools don't count, nor does swimming with the explicit purpose of finding stuff (e.g., scuba diving to collect fish for your marine aquarium), or finding stuff while you were on dry land.

That's just great for many of us. More competition... :)
How about that 200 Fly PNA record??
Looks like he ages up to 35 in January. I hope he doesn't do the 200 fly in LCM before then, lol.
I was seeded next to him in the 4 im at a US Open a decade ago and he was a no show. I was so disappointed!

While swimming off a semi-private beach in Kauai, I saw something silver nestled in the rocks under water. I dove in to get it and it was a camera in waterproof casing. I brought it all the way home & popped the SD card into my photo printer and actually got some pictures from it. Just some people gathered around the beach is all I found, nothing scandalous :D They were kind of streaky & had a psychedelic look to them, probably from the water damage.
Unless he's pulled a Huegill and put on gobs of weight, we can't hope to compete with him. Should be fun to watch him swim though.
Knelson has done workouts with him. Some people can do nothing for years and not gain weight. It must be nice.

You're right, I didn't notice that in Kirk's blaerg. IMPORTANT INFORMATION IS LEAKING RIGHT OUT OF MY
A few years ago one of my teammates lost a diamond earring in the pool. A few days later I found a diamond earring there . . . but it wasn't hers! After a week had passed I found yet another earring, which was the one my teammate had lost, so there was a happy ending after all.
In a pool in northwest Florida I found a chastity ring--it was silver and had the words "True love waits" imprinted on the inside.
