Anyone want to swim on friday morning? Berryessa is about 58 right
now and has been in the SUN unlike foggy Davis. Let me know if you'd
like to go - email me - emily - erevans@....
Also - so I don't overwhelm the group with constant messages about
lake temps etc - I started posting to the calendar on this site. If
anyone out there is still swimming open water or going to open water
for some other reason-you can add some info on the calendar as well.
It would be neat to see what's going on in different places through
the seasons.

Just a shout out to any men in the group who might want to meet me for an intimate affair. Anyone interested should take a look at my homepage
or come chat to me on my webcam
I have to work in Sacramento area on Sunday and plan to swing by
Natoma for a swim after. I will be at the Sac State Aquatic Center at
1pm. Let me know if you would like to join me and I'll wait/look for you.

Maybe next time. It was still really nice out there. It was calm and
the water was glassy. Temp was 60 near the aquatic center (which is
always a touch colder than out in the middle) and with all that
sunshine the top two inches were 62.

I am going to be in Sacto area on sunday for work. I am planning to go for a swim that afternoon (2:30/3pmish) . Was thinking of either Lake Natoma or Discovery Park. Let me know if you are interested - erevans@ucdavis. edu

Would anyone like to celebrate election week with an after work/school
swim on thursday at Lake Berryessa? The temp is still pleasant enough
for no wetsuits but will likely get colder pretty soon - so we might
as well enjoy now - before shiver season starts. If you would like to
go - send me a message at erevans@...
We used to ski on the American (now no power boats are allowed). It was a lot of fun and maybe has more potential for safe (whatever that means) open water than the Sacramento River. Good reconnissance!

IF you're looking for a place to swim:
Inspired by the recent triathlon starting at Discovery Park - I checked out swimming on the American River yesterday on my way home. I parked at Discovery Park under the bridge that is right above the
confluence of the American and Sacramento River (It's 5$ to park) and I got in the water at a beach just upstream of the bridge (there is a small path down to the water). The water was 64 degrees and pretty shallow (can't touch but can see the bottom). I swam upstream and
watched the algae bottom and schools of little fish (and yes there was some trash too). On the way back downstream it was fast and fun. So overall it was a pretty great swim - and very close by. I'm sure it gets more urban drool than Natoma and Berryessa but - the water did
have good visibility and not a bad taste at all- and no matter what it beats swimming in an over-sized tub of diluted chlorine.

Anyone want to swim this saturday? I am open to time and location. Let me know (email me at erevans@ucdavis. edu - or post a message to the group)
Natomas measured at 63/64 - still relatively comfortable - berryessa two weeks ago was still 67.

I'd be up for a lake B or a lake N swim this weekend - anyone?
Sorry I have been so mia...my life has been a little upside down with my new puppy! In regards to the Folsom swim (at Lake Natoma), I am 90% sure that I will swim it (depends on how my sleep goes this week with the puppy!). Its put on my good friend Joe Dowd - I will try to get a hold of him to ask him about the current water temp. I did some training there in June/July and I think it was about 62-63F? It will def be cold but I don't know if it will be 55F cold...as soon as I find out I will let you all know!
Hope all is well,
Megan

Folsom Lake. Check out the Pacific Masters website for more details. They say the water temp is expected to be between 55 and 65. Does anyone know whether it will be closer to 55 or 65? 55 sounds awful, but 65 I could handle I think. Is anyone going to this?

Hello Kate,
Yikes, sorry I just remembered to check this e-mail account! This week has panned out to be a lot busier than I had anticipated. ..with the new puppy my schedule is a little upside down right now...I had a ton of errands to do yesterday after work (all puppy involved!) and I totally forgot that I am babysitting (in Natomas!) tonight starting at 5:30pm...I am soooo sorry to be a total flake this week...I will have time over the weekend though if you are up for it...just let me know! I should also have time next week after work if I organize it now...I would love to get at least 2 swims in out in that cold lake before the race on the 27th...
It was great to see you again at Little Prague...we love going when you are working!! Look forward to swimming with you (and hopefully others!) soon...I will give Joe a call today and get him in the loop...
Have a great day, hope you get a swim in today...
Megan

Hi everyone; is there a swim this afternoon? I have met an open water swimmer from the "Winters/DAM" group who may be interested in meeting you at Natoma. I forgot about the possibility of a swim tonight and went to workout this morning and I'm not very efficient at doubles, but I might be tempted. Thanks, Leslie
