It was a beautiful morning but the ocean wasn’t calm.  The wind wasn’t really blowing but lots of swells were rolling from the north.  I could only guess that the wind was really blowing farther out sending the waves to shore.  It wasn’t a “sit and enjoy the turtles” kind of day!  It was all paddling workout.  The clouds moved in and out and during my swim …. the wind I suspected of generating the swells roared in, pretty much clearing the beach!  Well it did cool the day off.  Maybe tomorrow will be a better paddling day…..
