Thumbs up Inspirational Sharing For The Young...

I lived on Lake Winnipesaukee up in central NH for many years and I still keep in touch.

I would like to share the following story with Y'All.
A retierd American Airline Pilot by the name of George Brunstad did another ' Wold Record ' swim on his 76th Birthday by swimming the entire north to south length of this very wonderful Lake, 22 miles, this week!!!!

Now, another title that he holds is that he is the oldest to have swam the English channel a few yeas ago when he was 70 years old!!!!

Here's a link with associated video and news links.

Happy Birthday George! ' Absolutely Awesome "!!!!
