Many times when I arrive at the pool, there are a few people getting out. Today was no exception. Most days, a lot of people show up around the same time I get in, or just after me. But nobody showed up today. I swam alone the entire time. It’s a little disconcerting to constantly realize you’re the only reason the lifeguard is in his chair. You’re the only one he’s watching. If you miss a turn, he’ll be there to see it. So I didn’t swim as long as I might have had there been other people around, but I still enjoyed the water and the sunshine.
