On New Year's Day, I jumped into Birch Bay for the 29th Annual Polar Bear Plunge. It was my mom's idea. It was something that she had always wanted to do, and standing out in 42 degree weather waiting to jump into a 38 degree ocean, the thought crossed my mind that she may be a little crazy. But then again, with the hundreds of people that stood around us for the noon plunge, the idea didn't seem that crazy at all.
Trinity, cousin Grace, my mom and I all did the plunge. And, it really wasn't as cold as I expected it to be. We were in and out of the water within 2 minutes. The best part is now that I have done it once, it is crossed off my bucket list so I won't ever have to do it again. But, it was kinda fun, so then again maybe it will turn into a New Year's tradition!
