Still don't want to be floating in the water without a suit for long periods.

Yeah, I wonder what happens to temps when the low snowpack melts fast in the next couple of days. Might need an insulating jacket to protect my go joe from the cold.

I'm glad you made that decision.

I was a little worried for you, when you said you were nixing your suit yesterday.

At this temp it could take less than a minute before motor control is lost in the legs.

Wasn't it weird how high the water level got, after our cold spell? Snow melt baby! BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Smile

Glad you're O.K.

The end of wetsuit weather... not yet. The end of sinus infection weather... hopefully!

You totally suckered me out in just the 2mm top. Today I'm busting out the rolls of duct tape for Rooster - was wearing the 4/3 with the 2mil over last Sunday out east.

1 minute don't think so - I'd put my money on the kid - mind over blubber!
