Too bad you want to use a neighborhood pool to swim. Most people who want to just lounge around with a noodle in the adult neighborhood pools don't like it when people swim in those pools. Swimming is done in the sports pools. You have a swim lane to yourself or maybe share with on other person if the lanes are full. As I said in an earlier post, neighborhood pools do not have the lane markings on the bottom of the pool. Unless I do a dog paddle when my head is above water all the time, I could never swim in a neighborhood pool. And......I don't care to dog paddle. I prefer to do the freestyle stroke when swimming laps.
