Baywatch Santa Monica Reconn: Labor Day 2017

Dateline: Labor Day 2017, Monday, Sept. 4th... along Santa Monica South and at the Venice Breakwater...

I wasn't planning on it... but it happened.....  There was Baywatch Santa Monica and I had my Nikon and telephoto lens in hand... so......

..... and then I took a break and swam out to the buoy off of SMS26 and found Baywatch Capt. Steve Powell at the helm and riding shotgun, OLS Deckhand, Sean Kennedy.


Some time later, below, at the Venice Breakwater...

Back along Santa Monica South, below.....

Above and below, Baywatch Santa Monica cameo behind the volleyball net...

10-4

Until next time.....
