You never regret a swim.
So pack your bathing suit whereever you go. Cold water, warm water, chlorinated, salt, somewhat questionable water, quarry, stock tank, river, lake, pool, ocean (I draw the line at ponds, because I grew up in Florida and you’re pretty much asking for an alligator attack in a pond) – in whatever body of water you choose, it punctuates your day.
To wit:
check out swimmingholes.org for ideas. And if you are in the Baltimore area, go to Beaver Dam Swim Club before it's turned into condos. There's a trapeze/rope swing! And logs you can practice log rolling on like a logger! And, most spectacular of all, the hole in which you swim was emptied by men cutting giant slabs of marble for the Washington Monument. It's super creepy and wonderful to skim across the top of the murky water and think of the 55 feet of emptiness below you. And George Washington, whose Farewell Address established American foreign policy for, like, the next 150 years.
You're welcome.
