Keeping this short as it’s a perfect summer day today – and not one to squander in front of the computer! Bottom line, we had 71F water, ample sunshine, and perfect swimming conditions this morning out at L1. I did a point-to-point 1/2 mile to Oak Street Beach like last week but minus the looming threat of thunderstorms. Hope you didn’t sleep in!
