Hey Sunshine! ☼

Ok this may sound like a no brainer, but sometimes we need reminding.  The best way to have fun and stay cool if you are outdoors in the summer heat is in a pool - or in a lake, or ocean, or river, or whatever body of water you have near you! 

Floating

I think that one of the most relaxing activities (if you can call it an activity) is to lounge on a blow-up floaty chair in a pool with a cold drink in your cup holder. Close your eyes and feel the water beneath holding you up, while you let your arms and legs wade in the water. If it gets too hot, you just roll right off the chair and immerse yourself into the cool water. It is SO refreshing!

Swimming is also one of the best exercises you can do since there is no impact to your joints. So get in some laps while your in there. 

The Fresh Cool Pool

So next time you find yourself complaining about the heat and humidity of the summer, let your next thought be of diving into a fresh cool pool! Many towns have community pools, so you certainly don’t need to have your own. Grab the family and drive to your nearest cool body of water and enjoy a memory-making day! 

Don’t forget the sunscreen!
