Tom's Wednesday Swim Report
Big high tide, clean water, and the ocean was rocking and rolling. It was 59° when I arrived at Avila at 9 AM. Heavy marine layer and some fog up hovering over the bluffs. There was a pretty big wave, and it seemed like a secondary swell coming in from a different direction to give the Ocean a good rock 'n' roll. The water felt about 58° and it was a lovely morning swim.

Tom's Toes for Wednesday -
Glassy, calm, and funky. The search for clean water. I went east and there was funk. I went west and there was funk. Out to the end of the Avila pier, funk. Over to the CPP, more funk. I couldn't get away from it. Not good. Hopefully it will pass by the time I'm back on Friday. BTW, heavy marine layer, air temperature was 59, water was 59.
Niel's Not A Swim Report -
I got a slow start to a packed day and skipped swimming. The compensation was that we went to the PAC yesterday evening to see 'Alice', a dance production by MOMIX. It was fabulous but got home way past my usual bedtime.

Tom's Toes Report
Sunny, sunny, sunny, right up until I turned onto San Miguel heading for Front Street in Avila. Then it was fog. The water surface was bumpy and there was some murky red funk present. The temperature getting in felt like 57° but I attribute 2° to the fog so it was actually 59°. Interesting swimming.

Almost Swimming By Touch

Pelican Central and balmy water. it was blue skies, scattered clouds, and 68° at Avila when I arrived at 9:45 AM. There were pelicans lined out facing east and west on the Avila pier. The water had a mixed up swell going and quite bumpy. The water temperature felt 60° to me, which I believe is the first time I have said that in about a year. And I haven't gained the weight back so it might've been even warmer. It was a good morning Swim.
