Dirty Water--Oh yeah it rained yesterday

It was nasty down at the beach at 2:30 PM.  It rained a little bit yesterday--I forgot--and all the junk flows down to the ocean.  But since I was already there I went in and kicked around with the fins and wet suit for a half-hour.  It was cold.  The water was a big choppy mess.  There were a few 4 footers every few minutes or so.  The tide was very low.  No good shells to gather either.  One guy went in for ten minutes while I was there to surf but gave up quickly.  I hope I don't get sick.
