70 by 70 Water Immersion

Getting Close!

Yikes! Only nine days from my 70th. Gotta tally. 56 was my latest tally. Then I shall add Sea of Cortez kayaking + dip in a hot pool in the Sea + snorkeling, swimming daily with friends, fish and whales off of Los Zacatitos in Baja, immersion in a hot springs pool somewhat close to Miraflores (Santa Rita?), near weekly laps at Keough’s Hot Springs south of Bishop, and a full immersion into Convict Lake just the other day. That’s 63. Today I’ll get in the pool here at a Reno hotel before I head to the oral surgeon. Ack! So that’s 64. I have a planned swim ON my birthday so that will make 65. Between now and then, I’ll need 5 more rows/swims/dips. The plan is to take my boat up to June Lake next weekend. I can row June Lake, Silver Lake, Grant Lake and Mono Lake if all goes well.

Somehow I will have to figure out one more. I should not have procrastinated! Ah well. I can always create a rule that I have all summer to complete this task. 🙂

  1. Given that our bodies are about 2/3 water, I think the 70th immersion is going within your precious Self. Blessed be, Carolyn

  2. Congratulations on getting so close and on another trip around the Sun. We’ll have to celebrate, even if it’s separate households or if you do something at the park. Keep me posted

    Suggestions ! Is there a creek or an easy access river in Reno? Or a dip in the Walker River on the way home, and one of the places that isn’t raging of course! You’ll be driving past Mono lake too…

    My sprinklers are always on and I’m not sure if that would count… to run under them. When Amanda was here they did it and it was such a youthful fun thing to do.!

    Either way I know you’ll find your final five. It’s so exciting to be on the adventure with you🌊💦🏄‍♀️🚣‍♂️
