If you were unable to attend last Wednesday's lecture titled "Where the Warm Water Goes," the answer is in the subject line. Photos below. Kudos to Kahuna for organizing that event.

We had an awesome turnout for today's noon swim.  Despite the annoying chop and cooler temps, there were several who swam long and far, and many who delighted in their not so long, not so far swims.

Unexpected rewards of the swim: for the second week in a row, Liz graced us with her fantastic home-made treats.  Last week it was brownies, this week it was cookies. What will she bring next week?? I can't wait to find out.

It is extremely likely that I may have your actual name rather than your cool swimming name listed above. Your name may also be misspelled. Other words in this blog may be misspelled.  Because your happiness and satisfaction are my highest priority, please continue to register your complaints at www.idgaf.com.

We also had a super-nice swim Saturday thru much warmer (71F!), flatter, crystal clear water, north through a parking lot of boats.  The crew was small and intimate, but not so small that I can actually remember all the names (Patriarch, Mitch, We'Taco, Pool Noodle, Cool Hand Luke, Laguna, Squeeze o'Laguna, Daughter o'Laguna, Showgirl, others?)

A pair of Blue Seventy neoprene shorts were left at the beach. Reliable sources believe they belong to Ried not Reed. I have the shorts now and will bring them along when I come back next time. Probably coming on Monday night.
