Thing 1, junior surfer dude, is all excited by the 70+ degree weather we're having this weekend. Yesterday, after school, the things where whinging about how hooooot it was and can they go swiiiiiiimmmmminnnng?
Well, sure, if you really want to....
So today, February 9th 2008, at 12:45pm, Thing 1 jumped into the ce-ment pond, fulling believing it was going to be GREAT! despite our warnings that it might be, well, chilly. It was a beautiful exhibit of enthusiasm over common sense. He's so sweet.
While he didn't actually bounce back out of the pool, he was in a big ol' hurry. The chill did indeed take his breath away.
Somehow, the sight of this was enough to inspire Sysguy to follow suit. Apparently there is some bizarre tradition of doing this type of crazy swimming in freezing water thing? I don't know, he mumbled something about high school, but I think he was hallucinating from the hypothermia.

Good grief.

I did of course have a towel at the ready, but the picture came first. Note all the scuz that accumulates on the deck in the winter. Nature is such a pain sometimes.
