Swimming into Summer

Though the calendar indicates that summer begins in several weeks, my summer began this weekend with my first plunge into the pool.  My assessment is that cold water is only for drinking, so I always wait until we've had several days of warm temperatures before braving the chilly water. 

I love the pool. 

• It's a magnetic gathering place for fun with family and friends.
• Swimming is exercise that I can enthusiastically embrace. 
• The water washes away stress.
• Everyone's playful side emerges.
