Morning swim time has slid to 6:30AM.

Julie and I swam Wednesday and Thursday mornings this week.

Today we did a quick swim to the north sewerpipe, just as the sun came up and the wind arrived. By the time we got back, the wind was causing my barbie to  hit me in the head-- a new experience. The air was cool enough that it felt better to stay in the 57F water than dash to my towel in the low-50's air.  We were nearly at the beach when we decided to do a last minute swim around the rock pile-- it's hard to let go of the swim. 

Wednesday the waves were out of the south, so we swam just past picnic table, enjoyed the sun peeking through the clouds, and  headed back.


Julie prays for a warm-water miracle from the god of water. Her prayers were not answered.
