Skagen, Denmark.

This is where the North Sea and the Baltic Sea meet. Because their densities differ, they can’t merge which is what creates this distinct line. When I visited a couple of years ago, you could see the waves as the seas hit each other. Tourists gathered around and paddled in the waters [apparently too dangerous to swim due to the currents] of this phenomenon. It was one of the quietest moments of my life. I just stood and reflected, forgetting the noise of the people and instead, concentrated on the sounds of nature. It was like one of those moments in a movie when everything clicks in to place and you have dramatic heartfelt music playing in the background. 

Lovely.

You are my density.

I once jumped nude into the Baltic Sea after a sauna.  I will return to that area of the world someday.

BAMF of the Day: 61-year-old International Swimming Hall of Famer Diana Nyad plunged into the chilly waters off the coast of Havana to begin her long-awaited record-setting swim from Cuba to Florida, which is expected to take some 60 hours.

This is Nyad’s second attempt at crossing the Straits of Florida — her first, in 1978, failed due to high winds — and, while Australian Susan Maroney successful swam from Cuba to Florida in 1997, Nyad would be the first to complete the swim without a shark cage.

Your dad was shameless before you were and he answered nature’s call wherever he damn pleased to prove it. He was a life lion and his brazen actions were the unblinking representations of who he was. The warm flush of embarrassment blood never ran through his cheeks because he’s never regretted doing a thing. Sure, he splashed territorial urinary markings on the sea. Sure, he got surly off slosh liquids and engaged in non-sanctioned blacktop boxing matches. Sure, he swore like it was his native tongue. And sure, he flashed man tackle once or twice. But, he was never shamed by these actions because that was the shit ripping lifestyle he lived.

 

So hipsters, next time you’re not apologizing for your actions because everything you do is always right and you don’t care what people think, remember this…

 

If you deny being a hipster it’s because you’re ashamed of the title you’ve helped create for yourself. Your dad would have owned that shit with pride and honored it with a middle finger.
