Welcome to my swim blog. It's all about my favorite past time and passion...swimming in the ocean, primarily in La Jolla, California, but also wherever the tides take me. I enjoy playing with and watching all marine critters: fish, birds, sea lions and even sharks. The ocean is my home. Welcome to my home!

LJCSC Christmas Party/Awards Banquet

A gorgeous night at the Scripps Cottage at La Jolla Cove after a very warm (upper 80'sF) day.  A perfect setting for the annual swim club's Christmas Party/Awards Banquet. Kudos to D who picked out the food and basically organized the whole thing.  It was catered by Sorrentino's in Clairemont Mesa and extremely good.  I think I'll volunteer to help pick out the wine next year though!  LOL  I got hood-winked in to wo-manning the door, selling tickets, raffle tickets, and signing up members.  This was something I could do with my leg up and a great way to meet people but not great for conversations. I received an award for having the most body parts on the surgery table in one year!  Woo hoo! Now that's an award!  The food (bears repeating) was awesome!  I also won 3 raffle prizes...noooo, it wasn't fixed.  10 day passes to the LJ Athletic Club (where the jacuzzi is), $25 at a local book store and $25 at Paradowski's Swim Sport Shop...a drop in the bucket really!  Great evening, even though I worked the event.  Someone told me they voted me on the board...yikes!  Did I mention I wanted to be?  The food was delicious!  It's amazing how good we all looked with clothes on  LOL.
