Polar Bear Plunge 2010

It over! We did it and had SO much fun! There is so much anticipation and excitment only to have it over in a matter of minutes. And we will be back next year!

Because of the Nor'easter that went through on Saturday, the water was rough and they were keeping us in a small area. They also wouldn't let us go out past our knees cause of a MEAN rip current.

Rough Ocean

Son was so excited he ran to the water ahead of us.  I met him coming out as I was going in.  Neicy and I always go back for a second dip and this year, I went back in with Son for a third time.  Once you are numb, it doesn't matter how many times you go back, until you start to thaw and get pins and needles!  OUCH!

The plunge was at 1 and we were off the beach by 1:30.  Amazing!  Here are some more pics from the day!

Neicy, Son and me before the plunge


See!  We really did get wet!


Here we all are running into the water.

I hope everyone's weekend was as good as mine! I will update about the LEGO group tomorrow.
