Each day since I’ve been back I’ve had the pleasure of reconnecting with friends and swimming spots. Today was Angie’s return. She’s been in Ireland all summer, away longer than I was, and it was a delight to have her back.

It was another beautiful morning; a little wavier than yesterday, but mostly calm. Purple-gray clouds sat low on the horizon in every direction, making for a beautiful frame to our bright, sunny swim.

Seeing as it was Angie’s first day back and there was so much catching up to do, we had an even chattier swim than usual, staying out for an hour, but only making it past the little tree.

It was fun to bob along and catch each other up on our summer adventures.
