Swimply is sort of an airbnb for pools. People who have a pool rent it for a time (hours, afternoon, etc) for your use. So you're actually renting the yard (with a pool) for a short while. I think it started last year when (?)all the public pools (including apt/condo pools) were closed. Don't know how wide spread it is - but it's been in the SF bay area for a while.

I assume abnb or IAC will buy Swimply i just booked 6/13 and 8/15. Pondering July dates despite some epic vacations that month. I love love this pool. Best of the bunch. Omg. I strongly endorse this for my fellow impoverished FTers who lack a private pool or a separate home with a pool. This isn’t worth it for those who have a pool. |

Perhaps one can consider this to share the joy of “ water “ therapy . Perhaps lease the AquaSpin bike too ‼️ Anyway , before posting this , was deciding which cake to have .. like ice cream or something similar , one can raid the pantry , fridge , freezer or whatever any time . Perfect activity for jet lagging . Only thing is , have not been in that state for more than a year now . https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...f3cbb80a5.jpeg Basque burnt cheesecake https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...aba119915.jpeg Gula Melaka cake https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...a5bfa1443.jpeg Chocolate mousse & walnut sponge cake https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...b231487f8.jpeg These persimmons and mangoes from Myanmar to “ contra “ , so one is somewhat less guilty |

https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...09da19c23.jpeg I am sorry that your bacon was too salty. I get a bad batch like that every once in a while. |

Lol. If you don't already have a bottle of ketchup in the house, it doesn't sound like you are much of a fan so maybe won't be thrilled. It is like putting ketchup on a hot dog IMO.
