Cold Knight Club

This evening before we headed out to splurge on a wonderfully nice dinner at Pietro's, we stopped at the seminary. The college was doing their annual Cold Knight Club polar bear jump into the sem pond. It was probably around 15 degrees (but felt colder) and tons of college kids (and at least one seminarian--not Matt--and at least one Riponite) jumped into a hole they cut out of the ice in the sem pond. It was nuts! We couldn't believe how many people stood in line to jump into that icy (and dirty) water. We stayed for just a little while before it got too cold for Anna and we left. It certainly was a memorable sight!
