    Great conditions for swimming again even though the water temperature was the coldest its been this winter. Enjoyed sharing the experience with our record number of swimmers. Nice group photo.

    Hi its the phantom blogger again. What a great morning, I don’t need to say any more than what Julie put on the Blog,it was just superb with clear cool water and no swell with a beautiful sunny day. According to Magic Seaweed the low swell conditions are here for the long run and there are even a couple of days coming up where there will be NO SWELL AT ALL!! Check it out on Magic Seaweed yourself. It was a record morning this morning for some reason?? 63 swimmers, it seemed reminiscent of the Cole Classic, swimming over to Shelly. What would be terrific would be a really good record for winter like 100 swimmers. How about everyone makes a big effort for tomorrow morning??

    Great way to start the day. Clear, cool, crisp water. I tell myself “Embrace the cold”.
