Welcome to our swim blog... it's all about swimming in the ocean, mostly in the La Jolla, California area. We're open-minded, open-water fans -- enjoying local marine creatures, fish, yellow tails, birds and even the occasional human swimming by... Just like to get BACK TO THE WATER, whenever and as often as we can!

evening light
WKB and CFTC swam tonight at 6, dipping gingerly into 65 (inside), 68 past takeoff... clean clearish to the 1/4... lots of sea lions, more swimmers and oh, that glow from below... I do love a warm summer dip in the evening, the lighting was spectacular. Good company too. Saw Marta on deck x2. Hovik too. Tons of kelp on shore. Very close (too close) encounter with a giant sea lion on the way in about 3 feet deep, no kiddin. This gal trucked 26 wheelbarrows of dirt from one side of my yard to another today so this dip was just exactly what I needed to even my ballast. Mighty C's thanks for the glorious swim yesterday, you too Fred, LFTC, Amber, Marta, Doug on the fly and Leonard... one of my favorite swims ever with a nice fast pace and clear water. lucky me.
