Wayne I'm surprised you're not already making plans?

Maybe you are. Lol!


Don and Henk have convinced me to man up and jump in the water. I am
OK today at 75 and I turned the solars on so that will go up a bit
tomorrow.
I have to remember our (privately built) pool in Maryland seldom got
over 70 when I was a kid.

75 F ?? That would be considered bath water up here.
It seldom gets any better.

Yes, same with Lake Ontario and we used to spend a lot of time in the
water as kids. But that was then and this is now. I've even swum in
60 degree water off the coast of Maine but that's just crazy.

That is what Henk was telling me. The kids are the same way. Lake
Michigan was 69.4 in August.
