SWIMMING WITH SENIORS

I started swimming at our local Holiday Inn in a class with seniors last week. Have you ever watched a 72 year old with a pink pool-noodle do the twist underwater? Funny's not really the word! A guy in the class (Gary) invited me to join and even went out of his way to introduce me to the 20's something aquatics instructor. I forgot how kind older peeps can be! Needless to say I spent most of the 30 minutes smirking at the pink pool-noodle lady, and waving at my new friend Gary who kept smiling encouragingly everytime I messed up the legwork. I think I'm going to go back and hang with those seniors... After all, they have to be a pretty cool bunch to be able to leglift underwater to "Rhythmn is a Dancer!"
