Next swims:  Sunday August 9th 1PM, Monday August 10th 6AM
Last Swim:  Saturday August 8th 10AM
Water Temp: 53
Waves: Choppy
Water Clarity: murky
Crew: Kahuna, Itch, Steve, Diablo
Wetsuit/Skin: 1/3
Pitsch: 8 (yes, that's two shots apiece)
The bad news: the water temp has fallen again.  The good news:  instead of whining about it, the Crew rose to the occasion and we now have another Bad Ass.  Congratulations to Kahuna who swam a skin mile in sub-55 degree water.  I was not there to witness this auspicious event but reliable reports tell a story of considerable suffering and shivering.  Double shots of Pitsch celebrated Kahuna's accomplishment.
Also:  Capt'n thinks (pardon the oxymoron) that I missed a bad ass swim.  Wednesday morning the temp was 52 and Kate joined us for a skin swim.  I did not think she made a mile, but Capt'n thinks she did.  Kate if you made it to "mudslide" and back on Wednesday you too are a Bad Ass.  Let me know.

I would like to join also. This will be my first open water swim.
Hey great. Brian and Linda, hope to see you at 1:00 (note we meet at the East end of the Klode parking lot at 1:00, then walk down to the beach).
Is Monday's swim at Big Bay? Or Klode?
Linda - it was great to see you out there today! Good luck with your 20M swim!!!
Brian - welcome to the group. Hope you come back.
Emily - swimming from Klode tomorrow. See you at the beach.
