Evanston, August 29

Today Joe, Ken, Stuart and Sue joined Jody and me for a repeat of yesterday's swim. The pleasant surprise was that the water was warmer, rather than colder, a fairly consistent 72.6 throughout our swim. The national weather service prediction was for around 66. The air temperatures were also much warmer but this was offset by it being partly cloudy. The wind was a bit more noticeable and some of us noticed more currents in the area than usual. Overall, however, it was a very pleasant swim enjoyed by all.
