Cold by any other name is just cold...

Today, things did dip back down and drizzle on our sweet mother's day swim parade a tiny bit... not to be undone, we did it! Ruth, Leonard, B & C out there sloggin' it out in the rain. We  went into ward speed, just to get our wetsuits on!  The water was much clearer today and it was smooth and sweet, though a bit nippier than we had hoped for -- yes, we are so very SPOILED here. Hit the 1/4,  A,  B and then zoomed into home base to get warm.  The board said 58 and I believe it... certainly quickened up my stroke!  Saw lots of lovely jellies, mostly looking like the fried egg sort... a seal poked his head up to say hi at the 1/4. Ruth REFUSED to go near the cliffs or Marine Room, mumbling something about a monster out there...

Is there a monster out there? Ruth sent an email report on a near nine foot sevengill, but a monster?  Be nice... even a sevengill has feelings... and apparently seven gills?

Here's a cool video (taken in 2009!) of the one that may still be around... he doesn't look like a monster...



Missed you that didn't make it... we had a joyous swim.  Hope to see you next week.
