Thursday

No problems today, for the pool anyway! Hot and sunny! Another sunscreen day.

Wednesday

Wow - 2 bright sunny days in a row! Use the sunscreen!

Tuesday

Beautiful, sunny day on tap for swimming lessons. Get the sun screen on!

Monday

The start of session 3. Chance of storms this morning according to the forecast but if we can get through today, sounds like the rest of the week should be smooth sailing. Of course last week the forecast was for rain everyday but we made it through. Always hope for the best. This week we welcome Henry for his second session, Teagan, Stone, Lucy, Edith, Hayden, Clayton, Rhett, Morgyn, and Coltyn.

Friday

Whew! We made it. Last day of session 2 and finally the sun is shining. Wind, cold and rain was he story of the week but we didn't miss a lesson and every single swimmer kept on working hard. Some of you return again for another session - it has to be better then. Thanks to all of you for your hard work this week - that makes it easier for us.

Thursday

Wow, what an afternoon we had yesterday! It just poured during Jake's and Izzy's lesson. Suzy and I agreed we have never been in the water during such a hard rain before. Kudos to the swimmers for continuing to work so hard. Today is going to be very chilly! 54 degrees right now. Rain seems to have moved out for the time being but prepare for the cool temp. Water is 88 again.

Wednesday

What a day we had yesterday - lots of wind and a little rain. Thankfully the severe stuff went around us. Looks like a similar day is shaping up. I'll be heading out now to clean up the debris from yesterday . Let's hope we again don't get hit with anything severe.

Tuesday PM

Well it turned out surprisingly nice this morning. Hopefully our luck holds and we can make it through 3:00.

Tuesday

Over an inch of rain last night - enough already! I'll be heading out in a little while to open things up. So if it drizzles, we'll continue with lessons. If severe weather pops up though, we'll be hustling out. Water is warm - 88 - cool and windy on the deck though. Prepare accordingly.

Monday

First day of session 2 - not the best forecast for today and tomorrow. Hopefully the severe weather holds off till late afternoon and end by tomorrow morning. This week is a semi-private week so Suzy will be working with me. We welcome Leah, Sam, Greta, Olivia, Sophia, Jett, Jersey, Luke, Isaac, Annika, Nathan, Lydia, Jonathan, Mary, Izzy, Jake, Lauren, and Josh - Whew! Lots of swimmers.

Friday

Last day of the first session. I'm so proud of this first group. They worked very hard even though we didn't have ideal conditions. Charlie had to swim through a downpour, Edie twice had to hustle out because of thunder and everyone had to swim through all the birch seeds hoping they didn't eat any. Today's forecast is calling for thunderstorms this afternoon. Hopefully, Edie, it will be after your lesson. It was also nice to see former students return with siblings - Daniel, Ruth, Addie, Dan, Tom, and Jack. Glad to see you still enjoy the water!

Thursday

Yeah, the sun is out! Should be a nice day for lessons. Don't forget the sunscreen!

Wednesday afternoon

We made it through the morning lessons with a brief shower around 11:15. Saw blue sky for awhile after that but didn't last long. Afternoon sessions will continue but parents beware the chairs are now wet.

Wednesday

An inch and 7/10s of water added to the pool last night. Rain has stopped for now so will be heading out in a few minutes to open it up. Hopefully we'll get through all the lessons today. Parents come prepared - it is definitely much warmer in the water than on the deck.

Tuesday

The sun is shining again - looks like today will be similar to yesterday - partly sunny and "windy". Hopefully the birch tree next door has finally run out of seeds!

Lessons

Good morning
Sun is shining, high in the 70's, ready to start session 1 for 2011. Be sure to check here if you have questions about lessons because of weather. Looking forward to working with Jenna, Nathan, Eli, Brady, Charlie, Henry, Joey, Ethan, Sam, and Edie.

Lessons begin

Lessons begin Monday - forecast is for upper 70's with a few chances of storms. 100 degrees like this week would have been nice!
