End of Summer

Hard to believe summer came and went.  Kids are back to school and the pools are closing.  Today I swam.  I was going to run, but it was hot.  And remembered that the outdoor pool closes at the end of this week and if I want to swim outside, I've got to do it this week.  So, I went ahead and did it today.  And lucky me caught the end of summer special!  Cost me just $1 to swim today.  The outdoor pool is an olympic sized, 50 meter pool.  And it Wore Me Out!  I'm used to swimming 25-yard laps, not 50-meter laps.  I thought that pool would never end.  Thought I'd never find the other end. 

But I did.  Found it 20 times in fact.  Though I wasn't in the water all that long, I felt like I got a good workout.  My arms felt like I was pumping iron.

And then I came home and had nachos and ice cream :)  Oooh, and one of these, which I happen to agree completely with.
