First dip of the season!

Stroking was involved! Buoys were sighted, destinations discussed! What a fine thing OW is! The season has now begun! :) :D :bliss:

  • So jealous! The ocean's up to a whopping 47.1 here. :shakeshead: slknight, are you perhaps in New Hampshire? In my youth (long time ago) I went swimming at Crane's in Ipswich, Mass., in 44-degree water. I didn't know it was supposed to be cold. If you have a few hours to while away, you can numb up all over. Then it's not a problem. Read about that hiker/fisherman who went for a walk in White Mountains, fell into 6-foot snowdrifts, got lost, lost his boots, built himself a snow cave and hunkered down for 3 days last weekend.
