Summer Swimming Arrives in Avila Beach - 

At 11 o'clock it was 61° in Avila and the sun was just beginning to burn through the clouds. It would be around 80° at 1:00.
The water was 58° to 59° and smooth with the mid-day wind chop just starting to pick up. The 'surf' was an occasional 2+ footer.

Paula and Alan got in at 10:20 to do a 6,000M training swim.  Paula and Ilene are doing a 10K swim in a reservoir near Ft. Colling , Co. in September and need to be getting some distance in. 

Niel and Jeff got in at 11 and did a neighborhood tour for an hour and a half. With the sun out the water felt really friendly.   

This route was 1st buoy on the east, 4th buoy on the east, end of Avila Pier, 4th buoy on the west, 1st buoy on the west, end of Avila Pier, end of CP Pier, to the 2nd crossbars, to the 4th buoy on the west, to the 1st buoy on the east and in.

Jeff and family are flying to N.Z. on next Sunday so we'll see him again in another 11 months.

I'll be swimming at 7 on Tue., Thurs, and Sat and at 11 next Sun.
