Yesterday I took a little trip to Bluff Park to visit Independent Presbyterian Church's Children's Fresh Air Farm. I skidded in on the last full day of the six week Summer Learning Program. Three classes of graduates from our STAIR reading program have the privilege of attending each summer. They have reading and math in the mornings with experienced teachers and the afternoons include chapel, swimming and wonderful enrichment activities. Some of these inner city kiddos swam for the first time this summer. Rumor has it that NOBODY wants the SLP to end. Who can blame them!

It doesn't take long for most people to start enjoying swimming, after all.
Living both by the sea and withing walking distance of a swimming baths, I appreciate how lucky I am to have the choice to swim whenever. Love this photo V. It's so tangible and the light is lush.
