Open Water Swimming

My first open water swim. Ryan Robinson and I went out to Orchard Lake for a short swim. I was going to try out my new wetsuit. I think that was a good call because then I saw that bottom drop away and saw the nothingness that was down there...well, let's just say, my reaction is less than ideal. I ended up on my back, hyperventilating, and utterly freaked out. Yup, that wetsuit provided me with the buoyancy I was needing at that moment.
Guess I need to work a little more on that whole open water thing.
