We all went for a swim in our secluded pond! Such beautiful scenery!

Willem said he was going to go down to the pond for a swim. I suggested he take his mom along as she would like that.
I was very busy answering and researching questions on Lost trivia. I somehow decided I'd go along if he'd help me get into my wetsuit.
It's a very tight suit. We three walked down to the pond. It's a warm day, rather humid and has been raining a bit at times.
I swam! It was so nice in the water. I felt cold at the beginning of my swim. Well, that was after I fell and had to recover from the pain in my arm. Man that hurt a lot.
Willem and Lily had gotten into the water first, and had made a lot of huge footprints in the mud alongside the stream.
I had been strattling it with my feet spread, but somehow I slipped anyway. I really didn't like that. I lay there in the alders and waited for my body to recover.
Willem came over and helped me up.
It took me awhile to get into the water as it was quite cold, even through my wetsuit (long sleeved and long legged. I’m such a wimp!)
See more progress on: have winter campfires in my tipi by the stream and pond
