Free Swim Friday's Are Back at Pasco Pool

Helen Chitty and her husband Howard, started Chitty's Swimland in 1958 in Richland. They pulled out the lawn and dug a 20 x 40-foot swimming pool.

Summer is on its way and will be here before you know it. Here are the community pools around the area and the dates they will be open for the 2014 season:

I am always perplexed by the number of seemingly healthy adults that drown each year. This year is no exception a 51 year old Walla Walla man's body was recovered out of Lake Jubilee. His canoe capsized and apparently he never reached the shore. So sad. My condolences to his family.

Oh my goodness...It makes me queasy just to watch this video! Check this out! Where is the most exotic place you'rve swam? I hiked the 7 Pools to the Gods in Maui once and got under the waterfall there! And I've swam in shark infested Jamaican waters...

When my kids were little, we had a big water trough for all the horses. When it would get really hot out, we'd fill it for the kids to swim in. It worked perfectly well! But I think our boys may have gotten teased a bit about it because all their rich friends had high end, in-ground  pools!

Swimming with my horse in the water is my favorite past time when the weather gets HOT! So on Sunday a bunch of us went out to Finley and rode in a swimming hole there! We had quite a few of us and we had a blast!

It was hot yesterday and that reminded me to find my swimsuit. Swimwear is a funny thing because has got to be the most personal thing we wear all year. As problematic as that is, we also love for our things to be personal, or rather extensions of our personality...

I peeked ahead at next week's forecast and saw temperatures are expected to reach the 90's! Well, that got me thinking about hitting the water!
