Does swimming in cold water activate ancient emotions, which remind your body of what it was like to bathe thousands of years ago, and is that why you feel so good when you get out of the water?

I have to admit that I'm jealous of people who swim in potentially polluted bodies of water.

I usually don't because I imagine myself living some horrible carcinogenic nightmare in my old age as a consequence, but if I had been swimming in said bodies for the 50 odd years I have left before joining the senior ranks, I would have had 50 odd more years of swimming, assuming the carcinogens didn't take me out earlier.

Perplexion.

Rain Clouds

So we wanted to go for a walk, right, so we got in the car. On our way to the trail it started raining so we turned around. After turning around we saw a beautiful postcardy cloud formation which we briefly checked out. Then, the rain having stopped, we decided to drive to another trail only to have our second destination curtailed by another burst of rain which caused us to return home while viewing another stunning cloud formation. Upon our return home, it was raining yet again which resulted in a decision to go swimming in order to embrace the environmental stimuli. And after that swim was finished, a third resplendent cloud formation was viewed. Pretty cool.
