Once again, I am a little behind on my Picture Inspiration photos. I'm only 13 weeks into it and already wondering, why did I sign-up for this again?... Anyway, the theme for week 12 was Mystery. (Yes, I know, I skipped week 11. I'm still working on that week's theme.)

I took this photo of the pool while we were in Sun River over the weekend. You're probably wondering, "What's the big mystery?" Well, I find pools and swimming a bit mysterious. I don't know how to swim and I'm pretty terrified of the water. I'm ok if I'm in control and there is no horsing-around. But don't even think about jokingly pushing me in the pool or pulling me under. To see people jump-in and swim and splash and have fun in the water is just so mysterious to me. How did they learn to hold their breath and not inhale water? How did they learn to open their eyes underwater? How did they learn to be comfortable in water? My life began in water. So why do I have such a huge fear of the water?
It's a mystery to me.
(It should be noted that our assignment for this week was to focus on the mystery of nature and spring unfolding all around us. Yep, totally missed the mark on this assignment. But I still like the mystery I captured.)
