Well…with testing the water temp last week, I knew it was close to being warm enough to go swimming…so today, it was so warm that I took the car out to the lake and laid in the sun a while just because I could..and the water was just warm enough to go swimming…so I did…and this is the earliest that I can remember getting in Lake Michigan…it was still pretty cold and I didn’t stay in long but I did get in and that keeps my record secure for another year…every year since I was five, I’ve gone swimming in Lake Michigan at least once a year and that’s been a long, long time….but, the one bad thing that happened today is my right elbow, that has been giving me lots of trouble, got worse today and now it is stiff along with the pain and I’m not sure what I’m going to do about it…I haven’t found a doctor out here yet and I don’t want to drive back to GR to have it looked at… so, I guess I’ll have to just suck it up and take some more ibuprofen…darn…
