Oh yeah, and the sea lion slamming you in the dark, just to get things going on an interesting note. You must be made of pure gristle. Thank you for putting down the story of that morning. Looking forward to the next adventure! Karen, I’m still wrapping my brain around the fact you swam 3 hours on an empty, sick stomach in 52 degree water, way out to sea.

It reminded me of one of my unsuccessful Farallon attempts in 1966 when I couldn't keep my feedings down, throwing them all up, until I was so weak that I had to stop. Then on the boat, a nurse gave me a seasick pill, and what do you know...All strength returned after a feeding without throwing up, but alas, the swim had ended.. Karen:
