I had hoped to do a swim to Fisherman's Wharf, from Alcatraz next

absolutely NO WAY I can handle the temperature of the water!

Myrl, that is a lot of work, I am really proud of you. Keep practicing,
I know you can do it. The sharks do not bother me, but I am a WWW, warm
water wimp. I shiver if the water is below 85 (F). I will keep my
fingers crossed that you have warm water.

I'm with you Becca. My wife calls me the cold water weenie.
But a friend just sent a 40 year old picture of us, on a ship in the
north atlantic, in winter, surrounded by ice. My wife no longer ask
why I will not get in to a pool that's not at least in the mid 80s.
