drowning in pool

Just in time for the summer swimming season, here’s a story about how I almost drowned in a friend’s pool a few years ago.  “Catch me, Daddy! Catch me!” “Okay. I’m ready” I thought I was, too, treading water a couple of feet from the end of the diving board. I lifted my arms up […]
