LET’S GO SWIMMING!

Lee G. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love relaxing on a float in the pool.
MichelleO says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” I like to swim and I am always in the water when we go to the pool. I am not a “lap” swimmer, more of a “let’s dunk under the water and cool off” kind of swimmer. Plus I love to play around with my kids!
Angela says
LET’s GO SWIMMING! I love the water. Where we live we have the ocean and a beautifully clean river that we spend as many weekends as possible at in the summers. So yeah, I’m a swimmer! :)
marge says
Let’s go swimming! No really, let’s go. It’s almost that time of year.

Let’s go swimming!! I was a Division I springboard diver and have been swimming all my life. I cannot wait to throw my little one in the pool this summer:)
Meghan M says
When I was young I was a fish and you couldn’t drag me out of the pool. Now I mostly go to the pool to cool off in the summer heat of VA.
Clarenda S says
LET’S GO SWIMMING – Swimming for me consists of a drink with an umbrella and a nice perch that allows me to gingerly kick my feet and create a hint of a splash….
Sue J. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Our girls were on swim teams their entire lives. We miss the smell of chlorine at 5.30 am!
Amelia says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I prefer to keep my ‘swimming’ to wading in warm water on a vacation!
Beth says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim, but wouldn’t call myself a swimmer….except there was that one short time period in college that I got all pumped about fitness and went swimming every morning until winter rolled around..in Chicago…and that meant frozen hair on the walk back to the dorms!
Moni says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!”
I’m a swimmer by default, because I’m a triathlete. :) Its my weakest sport these days, though, so I’m taking a master’s swim class. I’ll swim in pools or lakes, but prefer to stay out of the ocean (there might be SHARKS!).
Ines says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I’ve lived near the ocean all my life, on both sides of the Canadian coast. I love the water.
Amanda Kaiser says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim! I look forward to the hot, sticky Texas summers just for swimming.
Sarah Keller says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!”
Got totally spoiled after being stationed in Hawaii and swimming in the Pacific for a couple of years. Now that we’re back on the East coast, the Atlantic looks like a pond and ocean swimming is a no-go! Big admirer of Samantha French!
Emily L says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I’m a pisces, what can I say I’m a fish at heart!

LET’S GO SWIMMING! Love to swim, especially in the ocean. And yay! A giveaway I can participate in, as I’m from Canada! :)
Nancy S says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Not a swimmer but I am an innertuber :)
A sweet score when I was a kid was a big truck innertube to fill up at the gas station & roll on down to the lake to bob the afternoon away :)
Harini says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love water..but growing up in India, I never had the resources to invest in swimming classes. I have since enrolled in classes quite a few times since I relocated to the US – but with work and family keeping me busy, never managed to complete them :-) Some day!
Kate says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love the water, and swam in college (GO BEARS!)
Rebecca Musser says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I live near the beach, but I don’t swim much.
amy says
LET”S GO SWIMMING. I love the water. Love to swim laps, love to splash in the pool, and love to lounge. I love it all!!
Tracy Kopulos says
Let’s go swimming! Unfortunately, I have a love/hate relationship with swimming… I love it, it hates me. I’m allergic to the chlorine, so whenever I go swimming, I break out in to a horrible rash. But these pictures are amazing so I can’t resist :)
JZB says
LET’S GO SWIMMING. I am starting swimming lessons this Sunday!
Dana says
Let’s go swimming – I wish I could find more time to get back in the lap pool. It was a huge part of my childhood and took me to college my first year. I will never forget doing laps only 24 hours before my first daughter was born.
Lindsay Mann says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! MY favorite thing is jumping waves at the beach:) So ready for summer!
James says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
The times I like to swim
are mostly on a whim
when summer weather’s warm
and sweating is the norm.
jodanders says
LET’S GO SWIMMING:) I like to do it all–swim, float, stand in the shallow section with a cold one!
Melissa J says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I have loved swimming every since I was a little kid! :)
Sarah says
“LET”S GO SWIMMING!”. More like lounging by the pool and dipping my feet in periodically to cool off! But my kiddies are little fish!
Stacey Cucuzza says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to be in our pool or even the lake by our summer house with my 3 year old. He has no fear of the water and absolutely loves to splash around for hours on end.
Nicole says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I am not a strong swimmer, but I am a seasoned floater.
Sarah Cordell says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love lounging on a float in the pool and soaking up the sun!

Let’s Go Swimming!
Love swimming with my little girl, having some fun.
Erin says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I need lessons and will be taking some this summer.
Kelly E says
Let’s Go Swimming! I’m not much of a swimmer, good thing my hubby was a life guard.
Katherine says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!! I love swimming and would kill to have my own outdoor pool but I’d hardly get any use out of it here in rainy England!!
Lucy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to swim. My family believes that I am part sea otter. Or perhaps dolphin.
Kate B. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! — Love swimming. I’ve always been a fish!
Lelia says
Let´s go swimming!!!! Yes, I love to swim. Swam in HS and College. Now I just splash with the kiddo.
Carley says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! As a kid my parents used to refer to me as ” the fish.” Typically I would leave the pool with raccoon eyes…that is swimming with your eyes open in chlorine. It was the best!
Liz says
Let’s go swimming! I love swimming! Hurry up, summer! Can’t wait to start swimming lessons with our little guy next week so he’s ready for the pool this summer, too!
bex says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I enjoy it, but really only if it’s in a pool. Oceans = full of things that eat you and lakes = dirrrrty. :) I’m WAY better at lounging.
Lynds says
Let’s go swimming! I was on the swim team through high school but stopped in college. Still find it to be my favorite form of exercise but don’t get to do it as much as I’d like!
Kayla says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I’m not a very good swimmer, but I do love splashing around at the pool or the beach!
Kate says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Love swimming and loved the salt water pool we recently got to swim in at our resort in Hawaii. It was heaven!
