Toms' Swim Report -
The Monday morning Avila report: the Texas storm continues to influence the conditions here at Avila. Almost identical to last Sunday, Friday and Wednesday, there was a heavy marine layer, 60° air temperature, and the water was glassy and calm. The water was 58 degrees with excellent clarity. Beautiful morning swim.
On a different topic, and hopefully blog master Niel will include this in the report… I want to recognize and acknowledge the amazing ocean swimming that Niel has been doing over the years and more specifically in these recent months. In case you missed it, he celebrated his 74th birthday by swimming 7400 meters. And has been regularly following that up with four and 5000 meter swims on a whim. He is an ageless wonder. And if he ever offers you one of his birthday brownies, except it! They are incredibly tasty.

Thank you for the good words Tom. Not so sure about the ageless part, just keep moving and having fun.
I'm happy to share the brownie recipe:
Get this box from Vons, Target, Amazon etc.
Follow the directions and add an appropriate amount of Ghirardelli 60% dark chocolate chips.
Mind their advice about setting the oven temp based on what type of pan you are using.
Caution, these brownies enable the consumption of quantities of vanilla ice cream, which is, after all, gluten free.
