Swimming!
We went swimming yesterday at my brother's placet. It has been pretty warm the past few weeks, and when we walked in the water the day before, to test it out, it felt pretty nice.
The best way to find out for sure though, was to go there in our swim wear and take the plunge. It was sunny and beautiful and with rain predicted in a few days I would have hated to miss the opportunity of an early swim.
Well, it was amazingly warm! And on June 2nd at that! It felt so nice to swim and float. I worked a few kinks out of my back and hips in the process. Water really does a great job of making those movements that somehow got out if whack, slide back into place with a twist here and a kick there. And all while enjoying warmth, sunshine and water! It was great!
I really missed swimming over the winter. It is such a short season, waiting for the lakes to thaw and the water to warm. But, it is so worth it when we can run back into the water and feel those splashes coming up and around us, slightly tickling us.
There are so many lakes up here, but most of them are covered in speed boats. The water never feels the same in those lakes. Having access to my brother's lake, with clear, clean water, with only human powered boats, canoes and kayaks on it, makes for great swimming and floating. It is very peaceful as well!
God's blessings meet us in so many places and overtake our senses with a taste of the supernatural mixed into an ordinary day!
Stay strong! Enjoy God's blessings around you!
