"while leotard

warehouses, "

Apparently embracing the minimalist life does not include abandoning one's
quiver of adjectives!

Lovely descriptive concoction of how a few of we Eastern-folk also view the
sunset brethren.  I think I'll forward both posts to my ex-Hokie son who is
considering a post-graduate jump to Santa Barbara.

The rescue question struck home, however.  After having hung upside down in
a heavily chlorinated pool off-and-on for two hours last summer, the only
oldtimer not giving up but still failing to get a roll, (hey! I was SO
close!), I've been working on the brace thing, hearkening to Mariner Kayak's
exhortations to hang my ear in the water.

So along with practicing the rescues with #3 son, I'm gonna get a good
brace.  Anyone aware of good on-line descriptions or visuals?  It's practice
time.

Thanks

Scott Stephens
