I'm moving

After 845 posts at blogger, I've decided to pack up and move. I started my new photo blog at Wordpress. Find me there at bhgrave.wordpress.com. I liked the feel of Wordpress, and I really like the new look.

The sidebar area is still under construction, and I will be adding links and such throughout the week, but the main field is done.

See you over there.

Polar Brrrrrrrs


Participants of the 2009 Polar Bear Plunge submerge themselves in the frigid waters of Upper Nemahbin Lake in the town of Summit on Thursday, Jan. 1, 2009. The event is an annual fund raiser for breast cancer awareness and other charities. Bryon S. Houlgrave ©/The Waukesha Freeman

It's Wisconsin tradition each year to start the new year off with a "cleansing" jump into icy waters. It was 30 degrees with a brisk wind. Many said the weather was perfect. I said they're out of their minds.
