That is my goal for today. I took a pretty long swim this afternoon,when the temperature was about 99 F. It has now cooled to about 89 F, and I am going to take another swim. It's good for my recovering knee. Photo is of the Judith Mountains in Montana after a rare late Summer snowfall.

Did you read about the temperatures in Montana Sunday? Miles City, 115 degrees, and Billings, 111 degrees. I just can't imagine. People there are simply not used to that. Heck, they used to moan and groan and sprawl out in front of a fan or two if it reached 80! Unbelievable.

I heard there was a heatwave there. But I hadn't realized they broke 110.

I am glad you enjoy swimming. I took a couple of showers during the afternoon.

I'd stay in the pool most of the time if we had one here and it wasn't too far from the house. I hope you enjoyed your second swim of the day.

Swimming in a pool is great exercise like walking is for me.

I rode my bike past a public pool this afternoon at 87 degrees. I was thinking "damn, that pool looks nice and inviting right now!"

I am sure that you will achieve your goal. Swimming or any water resistant exercises are good for knees. It's cloudy and pleasant here. The sun tries to peep out of clouds every now and then.

I am not a good swimmer. But I enjoy being in the water.
