Warm air, glass water, a curious seal, and a rocket launch. . For the second time in a week, I happen to catch the rocket launch from Vandenberg while I was rolled over on my back swimming.  An interesting sight to go along with a pleasant morning Swim. In the picture if you look closely at the end of the pier, you might be able to see the hundred or so birds out there… It was an inner species flotilla deciding on whether or not to rally and form a bait ball and if so, whether to go clockwise or counterclockwise.  They were still deliberating when I got out an hour later. It was a good Friday morning swim.
