Bring on the Sunscreen.......finally

Okay.....could be a little premature.  The high today was 70 (sad we were soooo hot!), water temp was 58 (did not feel good!) But we put the boat in and opened up the lakehouse! Woot! Woot!   Savannah, Grace and Steve all braved the elements and did a little swimming. The term swimming used loosely with water temp so low, hypothermia symptoms come on quickly. HA   Northern Idaho has had the LONGEST winter!  So even 70 seemed so lovely!  But we are hoping by putting in the boat and putting on the swimming suits that summer will now come!

1st time out in the boat for the year - Yes that is Grace with a blanket, but you do what you have to do to start summer.  Lauren sporting a lovely Swim Sweatshirt (sad there could actually be a market for that here in Northern Idaho! ha)

Glad you are finally warming up! 70 is nice no matter where you are, sometimes I wish for a few 70 degree day's to cool off a bit;)
