Final Swim

My mom has been telling us that we need to come get some last swimming in because it's going to turn cold and she's going to shut the pool.  We did have a whole week of rain and colder than normal temperatures, but this week it has been in the 80s.  So today I gathered up a group of friends and we all went over to Mom's right after school for a final swim.  It was 87 degrees.  The water was probably about that warm too (maybe a bit warmer), the sun was shining, and we had a marvelous time.  We splashed and talked and laughed and made sure the little people didn't drown.  And while it didn't turn out to really be the final swim (we swam on Saturday for the truly final time), it was the last time we gathered with a group.

I've included both these pictures because some look better in one than the other.
Swimming with us were:
Heidi, Simon, and Jack Tanner, Connor Phillips, Karen, Ethan, and Tanner Watkins
Briahna, Greyson, Everett, Hadley, and Ada Bushman, and Angela, Lilly, Emma, David, and Olivia Bradford.
Also Ellen Mason and cousin Donovan who, from the house, saw the pool open and took off his clothes to come swim.  His mother did make him put on his swimsuit.
