Yes, yes & yes!

I am not the fastest swimmer, but I have been able to swim for as long as I remember, and I was on swim team in the 7th grade. As I got older, swimming in lakes got more and more questionable... if I can't see my feet I don't want to be swimming in it!! LOL. As far as the ocean, I like to be on the beach and I love to wade in the ocean, but accidental ingestion of salt water is one of the worst things ever.
I am fascinated by large bodies of water, probably because I am a Denver native so I never really got to be around natural water a lot.
