Swimsover 2025

 Seems I never published last year's Swimsover photo. From October 6, 2025...



First Dunk 2026

 The pool has been open since April 27th, but the weather has not cooperated...until yesterday.

First Dunk 2025


 

The pool was opened on April 28th and I got in up to my knees on the 30th (the water was 65 degrees), but the actual First Dunk took place on Saturday May 3rd (with the water at 72 degrees). Here comes summer!

Swimsover 2024

 


My mother-in-law used to say, "It always get hot around the Jewish holidays" and that proved true when the temperature reached 75 degrees on Yom Kippur. I made my last swim two days later, on Monday the 14th, with the water down to 64 degrees. Though it's been sunny and the pool won't be closed until tomorrow, the overnight temps in the 40s (and daytime highs in the 50s) mean I am done for the season.

How many weeks till next May?

First Dunk 2024

 


Lots of petals from the neighbor's flowering tree, but the pool is open!
