For a girl raised in the Interior, there is just nothing better than swimming in a lake. The water’s cool and clean. There’s no kelp to brush your legs with its slimy sea-monster tentacles. There are no barnacles to slice your feet. Just clear, cold, fresh-smelling summer joy.
I realize that Vancouver-raised folks will argue with this. They’ll talk about the smell of the ocean, the buoyancy of salt water, and the sound of the waves.
But they’ll be wrong.
Here here! The lake is the way to go!
I agree. But then I would, having grown up in the BC interior, wouldn’t I?
Lakes: 2; Ocean: 0. That settles it.
Thanks for stopping by, Kevin! Hope life is treating you well.
