By the water - pool, pond, lake, ocean - is one of my favorite places to hang-out in the summer.  I love sitting by the water in my beach chair. (I probably shouldn't admit this - but I was quite the tomboy growing-up, and I loved going to the lake to a rustic cottage. I would spend the week running around without shoes, hanging out in the murky, seaweed, and slimy water - fishing and tubbing. And, once, I ended up with a leech between my toes - yuck!  Today that would totally gross me out - but back then, I just rolled with it. Where did the carefree days of youth go???) One thing though, I do not particularly like to swim (probably due to the fact I almost drowned when I was two), but I do like to walk along the shore or sit out by the pool.  One of my favorite shops - Nordstrom - has some of the best floaties, like the flamingo or duck, and other fun beach stuff, like these mermaid fins, underwater camera, and a speaker/radio, which you can use with your iPhone.
