It was a nice morning in Avila Beach, 41° and clear with a light offshore breeze with small surf breaking on the steep beach. The water looked like it would be choppy but the wind died and we hade smooth swimming. 

Jodi, Tom Israel, Jim and Niel swam out to the end of the Avila Pier and over to the end of the Poly Pier. Jim is nursing a shore shoulder and went back from there. The rest of the group swam to the second crossbars, to the end of the Avila Per and in. The water temperature was down a bit to 52°.

The lifeguards were in the water doing their recertifications. We spoke with Phil briefly.

I'll swim tomorrow at 11. It looks like we will have a week without rain so I expect to be swimming Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday next week.
