A "Go Ruck" fitness training class practices a teamwork drill in the near shore wash at SMS Tower #17...
An LAPD Helicopter flies low over Santa Monica... a regular occurrence that seems to this writer to be too low and too aggressive...

meanwhile at SMS Tower #20 we find veteran OL, John Baltz, on duty, and Benji Garcia (nice blule shorts) on a workout out of SMS Tower #18...
According to Baltz, these empty bottles are perhaps crime scene evidence from an assault that began at SMS Tower #20 sometime late last nite...
At SMS Tower #22, below, on deck, Rookie OL (no shirt) Conor Virjee, doubled up with OL, Brandon Leon (Stephen's brother)... plus a seagull making it's approach.....
so that it can join its friends on the berm below...
At SMS Tower #27, OL Justin Kirby while on a workout returns from making a back up rescue at SMS Tower #26 with OLS Alex Vicente...
While I was drying off from a swim, along came one of our Baywatch rescue boats...
One man on board so we know the other is either on a workout in the water or on the sand.....
... and he is on the sand, as it turns out, and about to stop by and say hello to veteran LACo OL/EMT, Chris Newman, at SMS Tower #26, below...
continuing on we say hello to veteran LACo OL, Chris Murphy, who has his (lifeguard) game face on... literally!... Sunsmart is he!
At Tower #24, veteran LACo OL, Scott Garinger, watching the water, and wearing his LACo OL Floppy Hat to keep the sun off his face...
Below, L2R: Rookie OL, Conor Virgee, with veteran OL, Brandon Leon at SMS Tower #22...
Crime scene analysis ongoing at SMS Tower #20... with OL John Baltz watching the water from his ramp...
*** Recurrent Alert ! *** The surprise of the day was finding Venice Stalwart OL, Benji Garcia, below, picking up a shift along Santa Monica South!... Does this portend a change in area loyalty?!... stay tuned...
Below, OL Blaney, on a foot patrol, checks on a person lying on the sand and looking ragged...
He's ok and alive. Well done, Evan!
... and on a foot patrol, below, at Tower #16, Stephen Leon...
and that wrapped up our noon hour lunch break/workout...
10-4
Until next time.....
