I got into the water yesterday after a few days of recovery time. Don't you miss your body when you were in your twenties and maybe into your thirties, when you could get out of shape but snap right back into fitness after a week of daily exercise?
I remember that youthful 'bounce back' ability. That was nice.
I can remember being in my early twenties and having a bad cold, a chest cold or something, that could be cured by going out on a hard 5-mile run.
Took that for granted.
I've been espousing the 'step-by-step' method of life for the last 20-30 years.
Like Mao Tse Dung's quote: 'The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.'
Saturday in the water at the Harbor was perfect for me. Smooth waves 2-4 feet, decent shape, and a nice interval between waves. I was able to kick out past the several surfers and relax just kicking back & forth between the jetties. No, not the entire length, I'm talking 50 yards or so north, turn about, and 50 yards the other direction a few times. So peaceful, such gentle water.
This photo was of the south side of the south rock jetty. Is that beautiful or what?
