Beautiful Experience, anyone else care to share theirs?

This morning I was not planning on going to the pool, but when I looked outside it was raining. I went to the pool and spent the best hour that I have had in a long, long time. I spend the time kicking (I hate kicking with a passion) and just feeling the rain on my face. It was such a serene experience with the water droplets hitting my goggles and the feeling that it was just me, the rain, and the water. The mountains were covered in mist and no one else was in the pool, although there was one rather wet lifeguard that kept glaring at me. When I got out I felt refreshed and renewed and ready to face the rest of my day. Does anyone else have a beautiful experience at the pool?

  • Tom that's a great story!!! I also love swimming in outdoor pools (though I haven't had the chance in awhile)...when I was swimming in Florida, there was a beautiful outdoor pool that is right on the bay. if you stand on your tiptoes in the shallow end you can see the water from there. At night and in the late afternoons (especially during summer) you can see these immense beautiful cloud formations and when the sun goes down and the light bounces off of the clouds and water it's just beautiful! A great time to swim!
