At 8AM Avila was gray from the near horizon to up over your head. It was calm and 55° with small surf and a water temperature of 59°.
Niel and Tiki were joined by Don Margolis, a member of the South End Rowing Club who was in town for a wedding and looking for a chance to get in the water. Don swims bareback.
We decided to do triangles so people could easily do the distance they wanted. Don got our after one lap, he might of stayed in longer if we could have provided hot showers and a hot tub like they do at their clubhouse at the Aquatic Park in San Francisco. Tiki did one and a half laps, coming in from the end of the Avila Pier and I completed the second lap.
I shot a short video of us at the end of the buoy line. In the opening still shot that is me in the front, Don on the left and Tiki on the right.
I spoke with Tom at the end of the Avila Pier. He is back from a international Masters water polo tournament in Spain where his team won the bronze medal.
Awesome and Studly!
I'll be back tomorrow for more of that 59° water. Swimming at 11.
