We had perfect fall conditions at Avila Beach today; it was warm and sunny with no wind or crowds and very clear 57 degree water.

Swimming today were Duke, Niel, Amy, John, Tom, Leslie and Michael.  We had a large pod of dolphins do an east to west drive by as we were getting ready to get in. In spite of what the plot from my Garmin shows we swam the standard triangle route counterclockwise without a crazy detour back through the pier.

Duke and Tom at the same spot.

Tom got ahold of the camera and had us attempt some synchronized swimming moves. 

Then it was underwater photos - Leslie

Tom needs to explain this one

This was to be an underwater photo taken by Tom of me swimming. His technique needs some polishing.
