Yesterday we went to Lake Tahoe for a picnic, little kayaking and swimming so here we go:
I was asked for a donation to help build a community swimming pool. I gave them a gallon of water.
I took a book to read on the beach titled, “The Swimming Pool.” It started out shallow but was very deep by the end.
I was thinking about this – if I was on a desert island the one record I’d like to have is in long distance swimming.
Think about this: Hippos can run and swim faster than humans. That means cycling is your only chance to beat a hippo in a triathlon.
At the beach I saw a teacher jumping in the water – she said she was testing it.
I was watching this guy swim and he was so slow that all he could do was a crawl.
Dentists and swimming coaches have a lot in common. To start with they both use drills …
Name a race that is never run … yup a swimming race.
Elephants love to swim so they also have their trunks with them.
Ghosts like to swim. Their favorite spot is Lake Eerie.
and where to zombies go swimming? Yup, the Dead Sea.
What did the lifeguard say to the impatient swimmer? “Just wade a minute.”
When we left the lake it didn’t say goodbye – it just waved.
I wanted to use the ATM so I could buy ice cream at the snack shack. They told me the closest one was at the river bank.
So far the summer is going swimmingly.

Donating a gallon of water and the elephants having their trunks cracked me up. They’re all great, though. 🙂
