Another Great Reason To Live in Shiloh!

Shiloh

This was obviously taken before the pool was filled and before the tarp was hung to bring privacy to the Shiloh Swimming Pool.  The pool administration and maintenance staff have been busy for weeks repairing the pool and refreshing the landscaping.  There's also a shallow children's wading pool which can't be seen from this angle.

Our swimming hours are strictly segregated, male and female hours.  The early hours and the last before closing are adults only, no kids.  That's when I go.  It's much more pleasant.  "Icing on the cake" is the location, an easy and short walk from my house.

That's wonderful that you have a pool with separate hours so close to your house!

Do the local kids take swimming lessons there?

B"H, yes, there are organized swimming lessons. It's funny that I chose this location for the house, because I didn't want strong winds. We're on the eastern slope. as an added bonus, the local shul was built on the other side of our "backyard," and the pool was dug/built in the other direction.

B"H, that's why I don't see any reason to go away on vacation in the summer. I do my "kibbud av v'em" trips to include the "9 days" when the pool is closed for recreational swimming.
