Those rivers have got to be pretty dry right about now...
We had two days of water on the West last weekend, with sun and 80 degrees. Sunday there were no lift lines.
Foliage seems behind schedule.
Still no sharks

Oh no! Too close to home! (although the description is not necessarily of a great white.... and the capture of a seal is really doubtful...)
Not at all thrilled about this.
Take me to the river!

Pat, I remember them running swim races in other years(with the traffic), but I think that I've only seen them once per summer.
