Peggy - I know you are an excellent swimmer.  Can you swim in the lakes you are visiting at this time of year?  How cold is the water?  Also how is your technological equipment working - especially the all important solar panel which will recharge your other equipment?  Al

The temperature of the lakes is between 50-60 degrees Farenheit. With my swimming wetsuit I could swim in them fairly comfortably, but without it, the water is pretty cold. I have gotten in for a really quick dip, but not a swim. The weather has been sunny for the most part and the solar panel is charging my computer. Now the rest of my equipment will need to be charged so we will see if I can keep everything up and running!
