Sunday, September 29, 2013



We had beautiful swimming conditions today.  It was sunny, warm and calm with flat seas and 55 degree water.  We have not seen 55 degrees since the spring so we are moving into fall swimming conditions.  Sylvia and Lisa, who is a friend of Rob's and a regular with the Monterey Kelp Krawlers, swam along the buoy line.  Rob joined Niel, Byron and Rick to the east end of the buoys and doubled back.  We swam to the end of the Avila Pier, over to the Cal Poly Pier and back along the west end of the buoy line.  We covered 2265 meters or 1.4 miles in 48 minutes.  There were some temperature drops of several degrees that kept things interesting. The wind started picking up when we settled back into our chairs so our timing had been just right.  Rhonda and Sharley joined us for the post swim discussion of yesterday's riding, who was racing where today and plans for this coming week.
