Wow! about two hundred showed up for this morning’s swim, which was unexpected. Thankfully with the new parking area parking was not an issue. Sadly we saw some cars parked that did not proudly display their I survived Lucky’s Lake Swim bumper stickers. I can only assume that not all people want to go to heaven because I’m pretty sure that is on the checklist.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) the swim will be back at the regular time of 6:30 am. The question has arisen, if you have to swim to get to the lake swim, because of the hurricane, does that count as an extra crossing? We have checked with Lucky, and he says no. He can be such a hard ass at times.

Several swimmers tried out underwater hockey after the swim. They all discovered underwater hockey is the sport of the gods. The Orlando team plays Monday Wednesday and Fridays at the Rosen YMCA Aquatic Center. If you read the fine print of your Lucky’s Lake Swim contract you will see attending at least one practice is mandatory.

True Sweetser popped out another 7 crossings today to get his white cap. He dragged his sister Marisa out as well. She did 5 crossings for her first time. I would say it’s in the genes.
