For the last week of its season, the pool--perhaps all city pools, but I should check, maybe Cook is merciful--closes at 5. No afternoon lap swim. A small sign announces this, also that the pool will be open for lap swim from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m. (post instead of ante would make me so happy). At 7:00 a.m., it's 60 degrees out; at 5:00, it's generally still over 90. Hm.
Well, I can swim in cold water if the day is hot. Here at least the water will be warmer than the air.
And it's the last outdoor afternoon swim of the city's year. Not, mercifully, of my year.
