Parksville where we normally stop for a night on our trips will have 70 degree water on sunny days. Beautiful scenery as well as decent fishing. Nice RV parks as well as reasonable B&B's to allow me to suck up to SWMBO. 70 degree water is NOT warm! I don't get in my pool until it's over 80! Damn straight, My yellow lab won't get in the pool when it is 70 ;-) I stuck my hand in my pool today to check the thermometer. 70f Brrrrr. -- Jack Schidt |

Growing up in Connecticut, I *used* to be able to swim in fairly cold water in Long Island Sound and in some of the lakes in that state and in New Hampshire and even in the ocean off Revere Beach. No more. |
