Anybody ever jump in the water on this cold day? I shriveled up (!) but it was so much fun I went in twice & we raised $1000 for Leukemia Society. The water temp was 42 degress. |

Wow! I can't believe you did that, Glencar.
Nice work raising money for such a good cause.
Did you do this crazy stunt on Long Island? |

I go into the waters at Mackarel Cove in Jamestown, RI every January 1st since 1978. It was warm today--36 degrees F and mostly sunny when I went in. Water temp was about 44 F. |

Yes, SV, I did it at a beach on the Sound. It was overcast at first but by the time we were leaving, you could see CT. I had always wanted to do it & this year was my 1st chance. I'm definitely doing it next year. |

You're probably a nice guy in real life. I wish it was reflected on the board. |

I think the ocean here is always between 50 and 55... and I'm not going in it, my balls hurt too much afterwards. |

I believe that's Puggy on the left!
And, yes, a bit of alcohol was consumed but I only drink beer & wine. |
