Checking out the start

Yesterday we went to Whitefish Point, Michigan. I wanted to see it in the daylight because I will be starting in the dark. We saw the Shipwreck museum and the actual bell from the Edmund Fitzgerald. I got to swim from the lighthouse to the end of the point, a distance of about a kilometer. The sandy part of the point seems to go on forever, as you can see in the picture where the point is at the edge of the photo. The water was about 67 deg. F. I finally got in some water that is close to the temperature I will be swimming through. A freighter went by while I was swimming, only about a kilometer from the point.
This morning I did an interview with CBC radio in Sudbury. It will probably be airing on CBC at 4.
