I decided I'd start up a thread that's unique.
Today, I went to the Aquatic Center that's five minutes away from my house, since the University pool, where my Masters Group and I meet is closed for maintenance (Thank God the maintenance week is almost over). When I went in the Aquatic Center's Natatorium, I saw that the pool wasn't crowded with pool users, (Thank you, God!) dove in Lane 5 and had the Lap pool all to myself for my whole session! Today was TRUELY a priceless swim session.
So I ask, have any of you ever had the wonderful privilage of having the pool all to yourself?

My schedule jumps around a lot, so I swim at a lot of different times. Usually, I can get a lane to myself. Sometimes I split a lane with someone - each staying to a side. I doubt if I have had to circle swim more than twice in the past year.
And I did have the good furtune of swimming right up until closing one Saturday night (9:45). The last half hour I was alone. No noodles, no water aerobics, no other "real" swimmers. Just me and the lifeguard.
I also swam alone on my vacation recently at Disney. Our resort had a pool the shape of a bowling pin that was completely empty for me at 6:00 in the morning. It was great.
