After a morning of CSS tweaking it feels ready to start posting to. You may notice the new ice swimming picture in the header — that’s courtesy of Mike Burden who would go swimming with his dad through a hole cut in the lake (the big spool is to keep snowmobiles from hitting the hole).

I don’t think it’s really cheating, but he admits that they cheated — they’d sit in the sauna for a while, and then jump into the lake for a minute or two, and then dash back into the sauna.
