After professional photographer Hannah Stonehouse Hudson took this photo of her friend John Unger and his 19-year-old rescue dog, Shoep, taking one of their therapeutic evening swims in Lake Superior, she posted it on Facebook and it went viral.

Even now swimming in Superior is a cold numbing experience.  I do enjoy my dips off Miner's Beach near Munising though.  Awesome picture of the best of friendships.
