Some days we go to the beach expecting to swim but we are disappointed to find very cold water or large waves or lightening. Today was the opposite. I just returned from Nashville and did not expect any more swimming this season. But this morning the weather service maps and a blog post from Gumdrop reported water temps in the mid fifties, not exactly warm but definitely swimmable. So I decided to go down to the beach and check it out for myself.
The water temp was 58 the water was clear and calm and it was warm and sunny. I texted my report to Capt'n, and to my surprise he texted back that we should go swimming right now, as he had taken the day off. We plunged in, just me and Capt'n, or "Dos Locos" as we used to call ourselves in the pre-Klode Kru days when it was just the two of us. It was a great swim, especially fun because it was unexpected.
It should be good yet this weekend. Come and join us.
