Back when Money Was Precious, I could not swim a lick.
My Mom Said I would learn to swim and told Dad So! Guess who won!
Took me to the YMCA via Bus and never did learn to swim a lick.
Fast forward a bit: Boy Scout Camp. Had to learn how to swim to get Safety Merit Badge.
Guys made fun of me and I Broke My Toenail and was on crutches. Still fun made of the gimp and the crip.
Screw Them, I passed the Senior Life Saving Requiremts.
Swam on the High School Swim Team. Tall guys always won! Longer than I was.!

I was 5" 4', Terry was 6' 2".
But what people dont realize, Float, Float. That is the way to consearve energy. Lay back and take gulps of air, lay Your Head back and relax!
If wearing Long Pants, strip them off, Tie the legs in a knot.m Throw them oin the air and gather it.
Why, makes a hell of a float.
Water is a relaxing sensation.

Her and The Moo Moos!
