Eva and Andrew with Swim Goggles

With a house on Cape Cod and visiting pools we wanted to make sure that the kids know how to swim. So, we enrolled them into swim classes when they were very young and we also have them in Swimming classes at the beach in the Summer. Learning to swim is very important. I did not know this but drowning is the leading cause of unintentional death for children ages one to four. Ever year I see more and more reports of little kids who have fallen into pools and drowned. It was a very big fear of mine. So, learning to swim is incredibly important to me.

Just Me and the Turtles

Paddling on Falls Pond
Photo-A-Day 2.0 #00136

All last year I wanted to take my kayak out on Falls Pond and I never got around to putting it on my car. This morning after Allison and the kids left I made sure that I put the kayak on my car before Krav Maga class. It took very little time. I don’t know why I find that my huge hurdle for going kayaking but it is. After a nice workout I went out on the water for two purposes. The first was to get out on the water and paddle and also make a 360 video of that paddle. the second reason was to take close up look at a house for sale. I explain all about the house in the video below.

If you watch the entire video you hear me mention turtles. There were a ton of them sunning themselves. I think that the next time I get out on the water I will bring my camera with the long zoom so I can get some better shots. The cell phone shots just don’t cut it.
