Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan-Claire Mayfield. This is day two hundred and seventy of that project.

River Run has a very nice pool.

There is a hot tub and a wide concrete apron with tables and chairs.

I love being in the water, BUT I am such a baby about cold water. I hate cold water.

My husband learned to swim in Lake Granby, where the water is just above freezing, but not this girl. I adore beach vacations and want to be in the water all the time because it feels like a big bathtub.

The visitors to River Run enjoy the setup there; I am always amazed at the little kids and the water. It doesn’t matter what temperature it is, they will have a ball.
