Hi Y’all
I’ve recently started swimming again as I enjoy it as a way to stay in shape and get some exercise. My neighbor here in Spanaway works at the nearby Mel Korum YMCA and was able to get me a family membership for the cost of a single membership. I like it much more than the JLBM pools and facilities as the kids can enjoy the slides and such without the hassles and regiment of the military.
I’ve been coming here two or three times a week for over a year now and I just love it. I try to come after dropping off the kids at school and before driving for Uber on the weekday mornings because they keep it adults only and you actually get to swim.
Most days I swim for 40 min and then head over the Jacuzzi to look forward to a nice long soak to ease away the aches. This past Thursday as I stepped over the edge of the Jacuzzi and sank onto one of the seats there were three other people in there, a young couple and an elderly guy. The couple were regulars and I said “Hi” as I settled in. I didn’t recognise the older guy, but he seemed to take a particular interest in me as my body slid down into place. He was sitting at the back so he could look out over the pool, and I edged around that way a little as well so I wasn’t just staring at the wall.
