today was the first day Creekside was open for the season. it is in the same group as Sendero Springs, so my $60 annual pass works there too. there are swim teams that use Sendero on Tues/Thurs evenings.
Creekside isn't heated. the lifeguards checked and said it was about 77/78F, which I thought was rather pleasant. air temp was about 80F.

felt good to stretch out a bit, and the cool water felt really good too. there weren't any backstroke flags so I didn't do much (I did some and counted strokes). if I remember correctly, they usually have them on one side.
