Keep warm!!

Jake, roger that...but we're crazy fecks, accustomed to the waters of Lake Michigan...we feel blessed when it's over 45F water and 45F air when its windy and not frozen over. I do tend to lose my tolerance after being in FL for 5 months, and it takes a while for my system to reacclimate to kiting up North. But with a thick suit things many things are do-able and safe.
