Mrs. Brass here... and I'll be the first to say Mr. Brass IS nuts, but I've been converted and will be doing this myself next year! :headbang: What a blast!
Mr. Brass was a true champ! You should have seen this... he ventured out further than most of the other plungers and while I cheered on, I also pictured us in the ER treating hypothermia.. :doh: But no ho ho. Queue the theme to Chariots of Fire and raise a mug... Mr. Brass emerged from the water victorrrrious. :clap: He even stepped over ice on the beach coming out. :bugeye: I swear, the man is made of industrial strength insulation. Although he did complain when ice starting forming on his hands as we walked to warming tent. :coffee: And I suspect that our Little Brass Monkey will be a Polar Bear, too one day. He wanted to go "swimming," too. :borg:
Seriously, it was great fun, lots of good energy :headbang: for a good cause. And if you're in Northeast USA, anyone up for joining us next year? :headbang:
Madmodder Polar Bear Club? :mmr: I although I suspect it will remain a Membership of 2. :lol:
Great job, Mr. Brass! :clap: :thumbup: :beer: Now for some hot toddy.. I'm still defrosting and I was only a spectator. BRrr!

Well Eric you deserve one big :clap:
Glad your Ok and didn't damge anything, but your brain maybe. :lol: You are nuts, but in a nice way and for a good cause. Going to have to show the wife these pics.
Mrs. Dragon, anybody ever say you married a nut? :lol: Glad you were there to take some good pics. :thumbup:
Looking forward to next year. If Mrs. Brass goes in and we have pictures I'll double my donation. How bought the rest of you guys that made donations this year?

Bernd:
Hey Eric,
How about a shot of you in your swim suit shoveling snow. I hear you guys got more down there than Albany, New York got all year long.
How you coping with all that white stuff?
