Beautiful photos, it's good to be you. What is the temperature like there right now? Are you able to go swimming? The water looks wonderful in that last shot.

25C and sunny. I try to swim daily but I do so in winter too, barring storms. That last shot is a mountain stream though, so much colder than the sea. Those are for summer only.

I attended the University of Montana and the Blackfoot River (pictured below) was close to our house. Sometimes when we had had too rough of a night drinking, the next morning we would go jump in the river. It's basically comprised of mountain run-off and like you said, it's REALLY cold. It did a good job of relegating our hangovers

They say cold water bathing is part of a regime for immortality. But who are they? The wizards? It certainly cures hangovers. Montana looks like it has some amazing landscape.
