Weekend and San Francisco Weather

This was a fun weekend, in no particular order I got to: get into the pool for the first time since November, see all my swim buddies, help a friend buy a bike, walk around Lake Merced, spend to dramatically different afternoons at China Beach and sleep in. It was all fantastic and good for my soul - although, no writing on my paper, that WILL begin in earnest this week - do you hear that Universe?

So Saturday afternoon at CB, it was warm and sunshiny even at 4pm. I talked with SwimDaddy for about 2 hours...one on one...mostly about shoulders, but some basic shooting of the breeze as well. We stood knee deep in the love of the ocean for most of it. :)

Today was an entirely different story, got there at 2pm and had on 4 layers with the top being a fleece, wind-proof vest...I was very comfortable. It was a memorial bbq for a gent that I had not known...at its peak there were probably about 75-80 people there and FOOD...and DRINK...and an ACCORDIAN...and LOTS of love...and the most amazing vibe I have ever been associated with. I met a whole slew of the CB "regulars" (not just swimmers) and helped to prepare some pretty amazing shish-ka-bobs - yummy...4 hours of chatting - more with SwimDaddy - and sitting on the beach alone, absorbing the sights, smells and sounds of the afternoon...wow is about all I can say.

Now a bit about the weather in general, last night around 10pm the fan was REQUIRED to be able to sleep, it was probably 90 in the house...this morning at 8am, I could not see beyond the balcony! Dense, thick, wet, swirling fog had rolled in overnight bringing a 30+ degree temperature variation...ahhhhh, gotta love The City.

Namaste friends
