Tell how you feel about water - playing in it, seeing it, using it. Tell about various bodies of water you have seen and an experience or feeling.

When I was a little girl, and like most little children are, I loved to play in water.  What kid doesn't, right?  This picture is of me playing in the irrigation ditch that ran out in front of our house.  I would have so much fun splashing around.  As a kid I loved to play in water, the only drawback is how cold I would get.  I've never liked being cold much.  And over the years my tolerance to playing in the water has changed.

I've not seen many oceans.  I've been to California and seen the oceans there, and of course I can go see the Great Salt Lake any time.
I loved to have dad give me drinks out of the hose.  Who wants to go inside when there's a hose handy, right?

As I've grown up water has lost a lot of interest for me.  I don't like being wet, because that means being cold.  We have a season pass to Raging Waters and I like going in the heat of the day when the water evaporates off quickly and you can stay warm.  I'm really not a fan of cold water.  I enjoy a nice hot shower. I don't even like drinking water but I force myself to do it.  If the water is nice and hot I'm all for it, I'm not a fan of cold water.  Unless it's drinking water and then I prefer it to be ice cold.  I'm silly that way.
