Swimming!

There are many lovely things about our recent move, but one of our favorites has been the pool access. We have a big indoor pool and 2 outdoors. So far it has been a bit chilly for the outdoors, but we have dug the indoor with its spa and sauna.

I actually see my childhood as Pool and Post-Pool. It helps that post-pool started with 6th grade and the move to ESA/middle school. And to be fair, we had a nice 2 years during post-pool at Peppertree Apartments with pool access, where Anthony and I played absurd amounts of our own version of water volleyball that was more focused on a verbal exchange rather than the ball we tried to hit back and forth as many times as possible.

I'm just so glad we are able to give Sam more regular access to free swimming. The pool is a great place for comfortable creativity.
