Swimming... Fun!

Grandma Peterson passed away in 2008. Since then her house has been for sale. A long time, right. I think so at least (and I work in the Real Estate Industry). Anyway, her house is located in an over 55 community where you lease the land your home is on. So there is HOA fee that my dad is paying every month, as he now owns her house. In her community they have a pool.

When Grandma was alive we would go swimming in the pool and she would meet us there and come down and talk to us while we swam. Now that Dad has the house we just swim whenever we can get together.

It's fun to swim in a private pool, where only residents or guests are allowed. The only caveat is that no 'diaper-aged' children are allowed. (They don't have problems with diaper-aged adults though). So that can sometimes be tricky, but we usually work out something.

This summer we have gone a few times. One time we took Tammy's dad and one of the community residents came in and started talking to him trying to see what part of the community that he lived in and getting other details, then he told her that he was with us. She had met us previously.

As long as you have a place to keep wet- that's all that matters. Enjoy Summer!
