Our vacation included many attempts to turn ourselves into Popsicles by immersing varying degrees of our bodies into this snow melt water. And by "our" I mean the boys. I wasn't crazy stupid brave enough.

Pre-kid, we went rafting on the Kern River north of Los Angeles. The guides 'parked' the rafts in a safe area along the way and welcomed us to hop in. Thank goodness for the required life jacket because when I dove in I about passed out. The water was so cold that it literally took my breath away. Even feeling the water ahead of time was no indication of HOW VERY COLD it really was!
Thanks for the memory jolt. Kids need memories like you're giving them!
The coldest water I ever (almost) swam in was Lake Michigan. It was 102 degrees out and when you waded out ankle deep you were completely cooled off. The boys(Mr. Geek and friend), of course, had to swim out to chest high to prove, well whatever guys have to prove.
The water were you were looks colder.
Cold is cold..but it's funny how cold also feels clean..
Love the pictures..sounds awesome.
Love the video's. Yes boys don't care most of the time if the water is cold.
