GGKS warmup
John B., Teresa, Jane, Peggy and I launched near high tide at La Jolla Shores to get a little more time practicing before GGKS. We paddled up past the pier to warm up. There we were greeted with several dolphin, seals and birds enjoy a school of bait fish.
We then headed back toward La Jolla Point, the swell was way up. The waves were booming on the cliffs. Peggy positioned us for a shot. I hope it turned out. We then moved closer to the Marine Room to do some rolls and general play. I missed my roll. As I was looking for Peggy's bow, which I knew to be right there, I pop out of my boat. I tried the new outside leg re-entry, but with my high volume boat, no luck. So I did a flawless back deck re-entry. It was one of the easiest ones I had ever done. Unfortunately, I did not put my sunglasses away, and they are resting comfortably with King Neptune.
An easy landing back at the beach, then down to Squires for a coffee. I did see Kevin Towers walking by, but was unable to thank him for his work with the Padres.
