Anyone For a Swim?

When I was a kid, my mom would not let us swim until it was 70 degrees outside.  We would ride our bikes to the bank because it had the time and temp. on the sign out front.  Now that I live in the desert I think 80 is a much more acceptable temperature to swim at.  Nate and Hazel have been asking to go swimming since we stopped in November.  Saturday there was much begging.  I rationalized that I would just follow my mom's example.  It was 70 degrees so I said yes.  I didn't really think it would last long, but they played in that pool all afternoon!
