"Located oceanfront, beside the Beach Tree Bar & Grill in the Beach Tree crescent, this quiet pool is heated for guests' comfort. Attendants offer poolside food and beverage service and Evian spritz. A whirlpool is nearby."
If you really focus, you can almost smell the chlorine. Seriously, the chlorine smell was so incredibly strong at this pool. Burned my sinuses. I lived on Maui with that glorious tropical turquoise ocean; you couldn't get me into this pool for $100. OK, maybe $110, but who would offer that?

Explanation:
It was so hot last week that I got an old plastic wading pool out for the dogs. They ignored it but the water stayed there. A few days later we were moving the scaffolding to a new spot and I didn't want the flowers that were in the way to be wasted so I cut a large number of them and plopped them in the wading pool until our work was done. Then I forgot they were there. Today I took them out, threw them in the woods and started to dump the water. And then I looked at it. The sun was shining. The flowers were yellow, the pool was purple, the leaves were green. The opportunity was accidental. Wish my skills were better....
Rebekah took this shot of us cooling off in the pool after working in the yard most of the day. That's Glinda, Dharma was cooling it in the house (not much of a yardwork or pool fan). Glinda is seven months old here, and Rebekah told us that her breeder's Facebook page says that Glinda's mom just had another litter, this time 11 puppies. Poor mom . . .
The open air swimming pool in the 1960s.
The start of my interest in swimming.
One length got you your 25 yard swimming cert.
-----------------------
Swimming pools in the 1960s could be quite simple in design and required little monetary upkeep.
All we ever wanted was an easy to use pool, plus a bit of heating for the water.

At the junior school we were taken here for our swimming lessons, those of us from the Children's Home were sometimes allowed here in the summer if we had been good and were willing to use our pocket money to get in.
I'm glad Dad got your camera, otherwise I wouldn't be responsible for the consequences... You know I'm the life guard around and you're not supposed to be alone here!
Ainda bem que o papai pegou a sua câmera; eu não seria responsável pelas consequências... Você sabe muito bem que sou o salva-vidas daqui e você não deveria estar sozinha aà dentro!
The 77.5-acre Pool Wildlife Sanctuary, located along the banks of the Little Lehigh Creek in Emmaus, Pa., was entrusted to Wildlands Conservancy in 1975 by the late Leonard Parker Pool, founder of Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.
The Sanctuary features the Harry C. Trexler Environmental Educational Center, which houses the Lehigh River Watershed Exhibit. The Lehigh River Watershed Exhibit is a part of the Conservancy's environmental education outreach. School children from across the Lehigh Valley visit the Lehigh River Watershed Exhibit to learn about the wildlife in the Lehigh River Watershed. The Exhibit features a series of interactive displays presenting basic watershed concepts, a diorama of Pennsylvania mammals and birds, a live amphibian and reptile terrarium, a fresh-water stream aquarium, and a unique window seat that overlooks the ponds.
The Pool Wildlife Sanctuary is also the home of the Environmental Enrichment Center, which houses the Conservancy's Education Department offices and classrooms. The remainder of Wildlands Conservancy's offices can be found in the white farmhouse.
The grounds also feature a pavilion, a bird blind, an arboretum, ponds, nature trails, a collection of native Pennsylvania trees, deep woods and wildflower meadow. Open year-round to the public, seven days per week from dawn to dusk, the Sanctuary is known for its excellent nature education calendar and activities for children and adults.
the first of the scanned fuji instants from California. Joeys party trick is to jump off the roof into the pool. Miraculously both camera and shot survived the inevitable complete soaking which occured minutes later!!!!
