sunday noon: the mighty C's, (Bill and Cary) after a 6 mile run no less, CFTC with her long mermaid hair literally waving in the wind, Janie taking it down a notch by swimming with the no wave crowd-i hear she's been dominating the surf Cove side-LFTC and a surprise visit from Doug, he decided to play with the common folk, at least walk in the water with us and then he was gone.. very warm and windy santa ana bringing big surface chop, rock and roll, toss and turn seas with some okay viz, especially at the Shores. None of that mattered to us, we were going to swim, period. We all marched in together and man, was it icy. we cruised out to the a buoy to see the cove action and were surprised by spinner dolphins! two, maybe more, so close, 15/20 feet out, we hooted and hollered with joy and they stayed around for a bit, keeping us company in the water. very good luck, indeed. the water was a total playground today, fun and bouncy and the swim back was a thrill with our dolphins staying in our sights. had it not been so cold, (57 by my watch) we all would have gone further. back on the grass we ate high maintenance cookies and low brow cookies with home made chai tea and warmed up in the sun. after all the food and drink, we parted ways except janie and i stayed to look for sea life and guess what? whales, kids! big spouts directly in front of the cove and more dolphins than we could count. it was almost too much to bear, like an endorphin overdose. i don't even remember my drive home, the swim, the crew, the dolphins and whales spinning round and round in my head, even now i barely know where i am. thanks again for a fantastic unreal day!
