Kirk Nelson had a wonderful suggestion: to post pictures of where we swim OW. I'd love to see pictures of venues, vacation spots, and the local swimming hole.
So I'll try.
Here are OW photos from Maine. They include our annual 4th of July Swim in Falmouth, the Peaks to Portland Swim (from Peaks Island to East End Beach in Portland), and the Rockland Harbor Swim.
We are lucky to have a great group of open water swimmers to train with.

't very clear. Next time we fly over I'll try to get a better view.
The Cove itself is just to the south of that shot. You can see the north "wall" of it.

For some reason I`m unable to post pics here,..but on my blog at this site, the pics come thru.
The Cove is the most beautiful place I have ever swam!
Here is the venue for the 2008 USMS 5K National Championship last August with a map of the swim course
Some year I'll get down to Bend for the Elk Lakes swims. It looks spectacular!
This is an aerial shot of La Jolla Cove.
Ron, if you want shots of PB pier, Scripps Pier and other Cove shots from the air for your blog, let me know.
It was still a bit overcast when I shot these. I'm determined to go back on a clear day with no coastal eddy, so hopefully soon.
