Talking to Each Other, Not Their 'Phones

A post on The View from Squirrel Ridge reminded me 

of this photo. I took it a couple weeks ago 

while walking along the Central Canal.

At the first sign of warm weather, people use the

canal for exercise - rowing, kayaking, or

using paddle boats to travel its 1-1/4 mile

length. Located in downtown Indy, the site is

also popular with workers as a place for a lunchtime

stroll or run. While swimming is not allowed,

the canal is opened several times a year

for the swim leg of a triathlon and

a couple swim competitions.

The swimmer below was participating

in one of those recent events.
