I don't usually go swimming in the ocean here. It's ankle numbingly cold, normally. This year has been hot and the ocean warmer. Our heat wave has driven me to the sea. This is Plum Cove and I have wanted to go swimming there for years. You have to have beach stickers to get into the public beaches. Yesterday, at 100 degrees, I slipped into the beach at 7pm. After the first icy shock I could have stayed in the water forever and what a peaceful, pleasant beach. Today I went to City Hall and bought a beach sticker. Anyone want to come swimming with me?
