Swimming status: Since May 4 of 2017 I have been swimming for distance. I only count whole miles and have been doing 1 to 7 miles at a time.
Update: 2019 goal was 500 miles. I made 520.
As of this date (10/7/2020) I have 245 miles for 2020 (1400 miles since starting on May 4, 2017). I wasn't been able to swim from 3/15/2020 until 6/23/2020 as MUV was closed for the Virus and my pool wasn't warm enough until then. I am suspending swimming for now. My pool is too cold and the fitness center pool is closed (and I won't go there again until covid is under control and there is a vaccine.)
The photo to the left was a gift from my youngest sister, Roseanne. It reflects my interests in music, Scouting, teaching, swimming, woodworking (a bowl I turned MANY years ago), electronics (radio operating), and my love of tuna fish as my summer staple.
A collection of 51 poems selected from four decades of playing with words.
