Here most of the pools are heated. One veteran of Viet Nam lost a leg so he uses it for exercise. Another woman has arthritis and was told to swim daily. The rest have kids and/or grandkids. In our town there are more permits issued annually for pools to be filled in than there are for new pools to be installed. My daughter has a lovely pool but since we have no interest in it we've never used it.

My friend, Lynn, had a pool, had it filled in and now has a gorgeous garden.
