Drowning doesn't look like drowning.

'This enlightening article on what drowning looks like may change the way you watch your children the next time they go swimming.'

We're having wonderful summer weather this week. The step class instructor at the gym says her 91 year old father in law will be visiting for a week from the east coast. His 75 year old friend is doing the driving. It sounds as if they live in a wonderful retirement community with lots of friends and an independent lifestyle.

Yesterday a friend and I went for a walk and lunch to celebrate her upcoming 50th birthday, and we treated each other as my birthday is also coming up later this month. It was good to have a nice chat, walking with the summer wind blowing through our hair.

How nice to see the sea and beach! But you are right about keeping a good eye on kids whilst swimming! I taught swimming at school for years, and lots of paents thought it was unnecessary and a waste of time and money! Hugs, Valerie
