We swim

We are so, so glad that our place came with a pool.  It is pretty unattractive as far as pools go... Our landlord believes any tile replacement should be done with whatever pattern and color you can find (cheaply) with no regard for the original pattern or color.  It is a fairly small deep end only pool that we had converted into a shallow end only.  So, we climb down the ladder into our box.  But, we have lots of summer days in the 100's, and  swimming children are happy children, and swimming children are then tired children, and tired children at the end of the day make a happy mama.
