Swimsover - 2022

   The pool is scheduled to be closed this afternoon and with the chilly temperature today, there was no way I could get in one last swim. So, Swimsover is officially October 16th. 

  Looking forward to the reopening and First Dunk in May, 2023.

First Dunk -2022

   We opened the pool quite early this year -- April 6th, in fact -- because we needed the cover out of the way so the new patio could be installed. Despite that, it was not warm enough for my first dunk until May 17th. (Sorry, no photo available.)

  With temperatures in the 80s today, Alex joined me for his first dunk of the season. He has been looking forward to being back in the pool since his last swim of 2021.

   Another pool season came to an end with my final swim yesterday. I had hoped for one more today but the pool guys showed up before I got home. 

  Oh well, only about 28 weeks till we open it up again.

 The pool is open and the Temperature Team and I were ready for this year's First Dunk. The water was 73 degrees, so it was a refreshing dip after volleyball and some yard work.

Will You Shut Up, Man

 So tired of hearing about how so many Republicans believe the election was stolen from Trump. Let's have a 2016 flashback to compare:

*Number of Democrats who believed the election was stolen from Hillary Clinton: Many.

*When Clinton conceded the election to Trump: The day after the election

*Number of Clinton lawsuits filed to have votes thrown out: None

*Number of post-election rallies Clinton held proclaiming voter fraud: None

*Number of times Clinton demanded Vice President Joe Biden throw out the Electoral College votes from states she "should" have won: None

*Number of Clinton supporters who stormed the Capitol, threatening lives and destroying property: None

*Number of deaths as a result of Clinton's post-election actions: None
