Diablo & Capt'n to the Rescue!

Next Swims:  6AM Wed, Thu, Fri, July 15-17

Last Swim: Tuesday July 14th, 6AM
Water Temp: 59
Waves: almost flat
Water Clarity:  Excellent (surprising after a big storm)
Crew:  Rosa, Monique, Cassie, Jessica, Scooby, Kelly, Diablo, Itch, Mr. Anonymous, Patriarch
Wetsuit/Skin:  7/4

A big thunderstorm Monday morning washed out the 6AM swim, putting our streak of 22 consecutive swim days in peril.  But Diablo and Capt'n swam separately Monday afternoon to preserve our streak, 24 days after this morning's swim.  I LOVE you guys.  You're assholes, but lovable assholes.

Today's quote of the day is from Showgirl.  On the way down to the beach we discussing last nights incredible lightning show over the lake.  I've never seen such intense and sustained lightning.  But weirdly there was no sound of thunder (heat lightning?).   Showgirl says, "If lightning falls in the forest ……………………".

P.S.  James, where you been?

And speaking of lightening, this link says heat lightening does indeed make noise. It's just too far away to hear.

Yeah, it was an amazing show. Never seen anything like it. We saw from house and then went over and watched for about 20 minutes from Atwater.
