Happy New Year 2012! It is a beautiful day to start the year. After a delicious breakfast of blueberry crepes, we headed down for the annual Gibsons Polar Boar Swim.
Fresh snow on the North Shore Mountains makes for a great view. As you can see from the waves, it was quite windy on Howe Sound today. It really wasn't that cold, but the wind made it feel cold.
Unfortunately the Polar Boars conflicted with high tide, so there wasn't room along the beach for everyone to line up at the same time.
Instead it was a quick dart down the old stairs and into the water. A few brave souls were out today...but not near as many as last year when the weather was just gorgeous.

I love this New Year's tradition. Start the year off with a BLAST. Take up the challenge. I love to cheer on those who put themselves out there.
Maybe one day I'll do it too. But for now, I'll raise a glass and salute those who put it all out there, including one very brave little girl who received the most cheers for her efforts.
Here's to a great 2012!
