The signs advising that swimmers should avoid annoying any big fish should come down later today.  I stayed on the Pismo side of the Avila Pier today because the sightings are mostly over towards the Poly Pier.  

This route is a reverse Yo-Yo, because I swam from a buoy (4, 3, 2, 1) to the end of the pier and back. A pure Yo-Yo is done from the end of the Avila Pier to each buoy.  The air and the water were 57° this morning. It was overcast with fog moving in and out. There was a gusty wind. At the beginning there was a chop on the water from the SE but it flattened out for the last third of my swim. The surf was 1 to 2 foot. 

Fourth of July Swim - We'll get in at 7 so we will have easy parking and get out of Avila before the crowd. Everyone is welcome. Jodi, Tom Israel, Paula, Kevin Watkins and I are confirmed. 

The #1 buoy at the end of my swim. The wind and chop had died down and the visibility had improved since I got in.

Thursday at 7. Saturday at 6:45 'cause Ilene needs to get out early and Sunday at 11. Clear sky's and high temps from 85 to 90 are predicted in Avila beginning Thursday and into early next week so the swimming conditions should be very fine.
