79. Polar Plunge





  For the second year in a row, I made it down to Bradford Beach on Lake Michigan for the New Year's Day Polar Plunge.






Like last year, there were thousands of people lining the shore.






The plungers: Matt B, Matt W, Rick and Todd.




A quick view of the atmosphere...





Stripped down and ready to go in...  FYI, I wore swimtrunks under my church clothes today. 





  Everybody made it out alive.  Since this was the 2nd year for me, Matt and Rick, we ran back in a second time.  We set the horrible precedent that each year we'll add another dip.  It's really hard to put shoes and socks on when you can't feel your fingers or feet.  I was just hoping I wasn't bending my toes completely backwards while trying to shove them into my boots.  A ton of fun.  Who's in next year?
