One of the things I have come to find most useful at this site has been the links posted by many of the participants. I thought it might be helpful for a lot of us if everyone could post one or two of their favorite swimming related links here for us to add to our favorites, and sort of build our own reference library. Please Post!

I really have to thank the Shark Man for starting this thread and Jean Sterling for her link.
I was in Charlottesville VA a couple days ago. A few days before going, I got on the swimmer's guide site and located a pool at a middle school, got the times, phone numbers etc., called, got the rate for seniors..
The pool was warm, about 83-84 degrees. I asked why and was told that some seniors (more senior than me) were coming in next for water exercise. When I went to the locker room, I got a couple seniors excited when I told them I "found this pool on the internet."
The pool by the way, was a first for me. Having been built a number of years ago for youngsters, the shallow end was 3 feet deep. A lady swimming next to me was flip turning in the shallow end. When we both stopped, I told her how brave she was to do that and commented that I had been "scaping bottom" on a few open turns.
Anyway, I really commend this site to traveling swimmers.
