Three Old Men Go Swimming -


Duke and I were getting ready a bit before 8 when Tom surprised us. He is usually a 9 to 9:30 swimmer but had a morning meeting.

He was on a mission so he showed us how to get going, get in and stop standing about talking. Tom headed out to the end of the Avila Pier and that was the last we saw of him in the water.

The water was 55° and the air 56° but there was a gusty offshore wind that didn't feel too friendly and was making things a bit choppy. 

Duke and I swam around until we decided we had had enough fund and got out. 

I saw Tom, of the sleeveless wetsuit, while he was changing and he looked cold. The wind on his bare arms was tough.


I'll swim on Thursday morning at 8:45.
