First Swim

I went for my first swim of the season the other day, that was not the best of ideas. I had that song "Temperature" stuck in my head, which was not appropriate for event- it was freezing! By the third lap I could not breath but I had set a goal of ten, so I had to be stupid and actually finish it. As the 8th lap loomed I asked myself "Why do people think this is fun?" no answers came to mind but the odd part is that I'll probably be in again today.
You may be wondering why it's this cold; this late in may there are several reasons;
1) It’s an in-ground pool this is not a bad thing but when combined with the rest of the list it's quite a problem.
2) It’s filled with frigid well water.
3) Due to his tree friends Mr. Pool only gets about 5 minuets of sun light a day.
4) It’s old: I think it was built before they invented heat so they did not know how to handle it.
As you can tell it was a great way for Houdini to practice jumping into frigid ponds
