Swim #23: Morse's Pond, Wellesley, MA

Having grown up in Needham and now living in Newton, it is surprising that I have never been to Morse's Pond.  The season has officially ended, so there are no lifeguards and also no throngs of people, despite the fact that it is a spectacularly beautiful day.  There is a sign saying "beach closed - swim at your own risk," and perhaps the Wellesleyites don't realize the gates are still open?  I won't complain about having the lake to myself, but do wish I had brought the dog for company.  I had a very nice swim, going back and forth fairly close to shore.  This is an awkward photo, taken by me with my right arm stretched as far as it would go.
