Indoor Swimming

After our big Thomas morning and afternoon nap, we took advantage of Hampton Inn’s indoor swimming pool. The boys love water and had already gone swimming in the Gulf of Mexico, the Lake of the Ozarks and Grandma and Granddaddy Roe’s outdoor pool. This was their first dip in an indoor pool, where no sun glared, no wind blew, no fish nibbled and no sharp rocks cut. The water was clear, clean and comfortable. It must have looked inviting because Trey Davey immediately walked to the pool’s edge and fearlessly stepped in an area well above his head. The adults nearly had heart failure, but he was wearing a swimsuit with built-in floatation and immediately bobbed to the surface with a big smile. We had never swum with Pa, Granny and Levi before, and the three boys enjoyed paddling from one adult to another.
