Try to find a warm water pool, or a therapeutic pool, to exercise in. They are awesome!! Our municipality has one located in the same facility as their indoor pools. The temp is set in the mid-90's. It warms you all the way through, I used to love going there before I returned to work (usually I was the only one there younger than 65!). Also - sometimes larger health club facilities or physical therapy groups have warm water pools available.

Take care, Sandy

But I love to swim and be in the water it help's so much. My home is on a lake front piece of property so I do swim in the August when the lake gets warm enough and it's just great. I look at that lake today and it's got at least 8 plus inches of snow on it and it's snowing here unbelievable it's hard to believe I actually swim in there.

Thanks for the info.
