They say you learn something new every day. What I learned today...
- Luna Lagoona goes by many names... while Itch rattled of a very impressive list with associated short stories of how they came to be... my favorites were Lunatic and Garden Party.
- We're not alone Mateys! Fox Point has a beach club...complete with a private beach, beach house and a crew of swimmers. Arrg, I think we might want to introduce ourselves...a beach house sure would be nice for those winter swims.
- Kunu = Chuck in Hawaiian (Welcome to our newest nicknamed swimmer!)
- Just because a swim buoy (a.k.a. "a Barbie") doesn't inflate it doesn't mean it has a hole in it. Just sayin'.
- When the forecast calls for 3-5ft waves it's not always right. (okay...so maybe I already knew forecasts aren't always right...)
- (...this from a very reliable source...) men should eat 3 Brazil Nuts a day to maintain their testosterone levels
