Would you swim in this today?
This the exact spot where I learned to swim, it was muddy, cold, and wonderful, it was also where I learned to use a canoe with the school, we actually had to turn it over...Yuk... My Mum would send us to Ushers shop on the canal a little way back, for bread..I can smell it now. Climbing up the steep hill home I would peal off bits of crust to eat, sit on the big stone that was halfway up the hill...I now live in Florida and swim daily in the Gulf of Mexico... in the canal you never had to be concerned for stingrays, and sharks though.
