Trish says
I really learned to swim as an adult, just a couple of years ago. I had a couple of bad experience with water, and finally wanted to learn how to swim, both as exercise, and as a personal goal.

Kjersti says
Let’s Go Swimming! I love to swim…growing up everyday in the summer, I remember my mom would drive me and my brothers over to the local swimming pool. Mom would sit in the shade with the other moms and chat all afternoon, and my brothers and I would swim until our skin was all wrinkly and our blonde hair was turning green from the clorine! Aww memories!
