Weeding

Caleb has an interesting job this summer - weeding. The twist is that he's doing this under water! There's a project at Skaneateles Lake to reduce the population of an invasive weed called milfoil. The weed is aggresive and clogs lakes. With Skaneateles being the primary water source for Syracuse, the goal is to cut the weed population as much as possible. His first day on the job, the air temperature was about 48 degrees!! And if you know Skaneateles lake, you'll know it's very cold even in August. Things have warmed up, so he doesn't look as blue as he did!
