Hanging Out at the Pool

This guest post from my sister Haley Tucker.

I can't wait until the pool at my apartment complex opens in the summer because I love to relax and tan. I spend the spring months working out with various instructors that are on my direct tv offers to be ready for summer. I like to have my body in shape because I am at the pool constantly.

The area in my complex where the pool is also has wireless access to the Internet, so I am able to take my laptop to the pool and study. Whatever book I am reading, sun tanning lotion, a towel and sun glasses go with me each time. In the evenings adults will hang out with beer and food and chat until the pool closes at midnight.

Living in a big city it is nice to feel like I am a part of a smaller community, which is why I chose to live in an apartment community instead of a house. I also like the fact that I am not doing yard work instead of enjoying lounging at the pool.

On the weekends I will bring a few of my girlfriends that need a break to the pool and we will play pool volleyball, while we chat about our lives. The time I spend swimming and hanging out is a great change of pace from being inside all of the time.
