change in the offing

Monday's swim was nothing out of the ordinary, although there were many, many other swimmers on hand. So I just took my usual spot between Gary and Varsity (and her circle-swimming pal) and watched most everybody whiz on by.

As expected, the pool authorities left a note announcing the annual maintenance will be from Aug. 19-Sept. 5. Drat.

But that is a good reason to check with the alma mater and see how they plan to deal with alumni who want to use their fancy new pool, which almost certainly would be cooler and less chemical-ly. I would like very much to ditch the decongestants, and being as I didn't need them in the college's old pool, I'm optimistic the new one would be OK, too.

So, we'll see.
