Pool Choice and Water-borne Exercise At My Place

Pool times have become more frequent this early in the summer. In my apartment complex we have three rather large sized pools. I have the ability to cheese between either a large kidney sized with a depth of 6ft or a traditional Olympic square with a gradual depth to 8 feet.
I like the 6ft pool that's primarily in my back yard. It's a short walk through the kids playground area and it overlooks the alligator riddled Hillsborough River. Yes, there are alligators in the river that cuts through the city of Tampa.
The pool also has a good shower and filter system that keeps the water pretty clear. The shower I use before going into the pool and upon exit to my lounge chair. When I  get to my lounge chair I usually spread out my t-shirt and large towel across the back. Then I just vedge out for some good old Vitamin D3.
Being retired, helps me to get my water exercises in since there are very few children at the pool during the day. I've actually only seen one child during the current summer session.
