Wednesday
Dear Elsie
Today was the day I swam twice. We went down to the beach at 8am and, although there was a little wind, it was beautiful and clear and easy swimming. I realised today why I prefer the open sea to tidal pools – it’s because I like being out of my depth.
Home by 10am and I said I’d make David egg and bacon which I did. Then to work I went. I worked until 2pm. Some friends were going for an afternoon swim, so, having finished most of my work, I walked down again and had another 40 minutes in the water. It was warmer, but certainly windier too. Swimming out to the barrel was hard work. Swimming back a breeze – literally. It was lovely though. A two swim day is a good day. Wind Guru indicates the wind will pick up tomorrow, so a sea day may be delayed until Friday.
Talking of the sea, I saw on Facebook, surprisingly, there have been Southern Right Whales off the Cape shores. They’ve been on the Atlantic side and there have been. Lovely photos by Nanette Smith. These were off Sea Point.
They are enormous!
I didn’t know they came this far south this early in the year.
The puzzle is edging its way to completion. I don’t have as much time to work on it during the day, but hope to finish it within a week.
Psalm 38:15
Lord, I wait for You; You will answer, Lord my God.
It’s not about now – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
Gran xx 🙂
