Day 5 of my Chevy Tahoe Hybrid adventure took me home to Charlotte County, Fla., where I kayaked across the Peace River from Charlotte Harbor to Punta Gorda while many others swam the 1.5 miles or so across. It's been described as a glorious blobblefest and indeed, it still has its charm.
Thanks to Michael P. Haymans, one of the swim's founders, for being dedicated to the event and community.
Thanks for watching!

@bmxndad Not sure but shortly after it started, I saw two teenagers pulled out - one got sick. Paramedics were checking on people at Fishermen's Village, too. I swam it in 2008 and the current was awful, which is why I opted for a kayak this year.

How many actually made it all the way across? I heard the tide was killer.
