The men left for Lake Lucerne early and arrived for a plumbing mission to be preformed at the Knott Lane cabin. The lake was almost, but not quite, iced over.
The lake level was checked. xxLt chose the more dangerous "Water level Standing" instead of the safer "Laying on the pier reach" The ice was thin, suddenly there was a creaking sound!
The men were ready to capture the "Latest Swim" record. They had it all, open water, a late date. The only thing lacking was any actual desire to get into the water. Cowards! We are going to need more ice than this for the Annual Bottle Rocket war
-Nemo wasn't there.
