swim track

B.C.

My swim quest continues. We camped with family and friends on Halfway Island in Lower Saranac Lake. The open water swim from site 16-18 inscribed a sideways “C”. I didn’t feel compelled to go in strict letter order.

We were pretty busy, lots of swimming, crafts, boat trips. The grand kids took a canoe to scout for blueberries on an adjacent island.

We had tarps set up beautifully so did not mind one night’s train. Lightning in a nearby cloud kept us entertained as if it were a fireworks show.

Today I had time for a quick swim before supper. I question my gps’ accuracy since it showed me swimming over land. No wonder I am so slow.

Today Tim ticked Lake Clear off his list and I swam a “Y”. The lake was gorgeous and large, with a nice sandy beach.

Seen another way, my gps track drew a soaring bird.

I find it hard to retrace a leg of the letter. I may have to tuck a compass in my swimsuit. Notice the corkscrew finish!

Is this a twister?!

No, it is Osgood Pond, upside down. The water was still this morning and reflections, very clear. Stand on your head and you may be convinced.

We scouted out Upper St. Regis Lake and came upon this lavish boathouse! An Idem class boat was seen on the water as well.

Next up – “Z”.
