Carried Away

We arrived at Klode with tired arms and shoulders from all the swimming we've been doing the last few days.  So we planned on an easy mile to the "rockpile" and back.  But the water was so warm and clear and calm, and we felt so good, we just kept going.   

Over an hour and two miles later we finally staggered back onto the beach, exhausted but exhilarated.  What a great swim!  I've never gone so far without a wetsuit.

It's probably a good thing I'm going to Chicago today (go Cubbies!).  If I was here, I'd probably want to go swimming again.  I can't remember when conditions have been so good for so long.  I'd probably keep going until the wheels fell off.

Tomorrow:  Klode 6AM
