Have you swam any OW where you could see the bottom? Where was it and how deep was it? What was down there? See anything interesting?

  • Took a long walk today, April, along the southern Lake Michigan shoreline, where the water is approaching 50 deg F. I'm looking forward to getting back in and seeing what's new! Earlier I pulled out a homemade anchor with mussel colonies (invasive species) clinging to it. I looked for last year's path down to the water over a series of setback stone blocks and it was gone; winter storms wrested those huge stones out of position and sent some out to sea. A few minnows, seabirds bobbing... pretty soon now! :fish2: Hope the Chesapeake Bay swimmers, Mackinac Strait swimmer, and others come back with underwater trip reports! VB
