A tiny baby \u2014 perfect proportions, just little \u2014 crawling all the way up the steps to the jungle gym.<br>&nbsp;<br>The waterfalls have been turned on in the splash field. A boy and dad exit the whirlpool. Both shake their heads and tug at their shorts the same way. I thought the dad said \u201csammy sugar&#8221; to get the boy&#8217;s attention. Later I realized the boy is mentally challenged. This happy teenager is having so much fun in the water. Hairy guy. Full black beard, blue goggles on his head, board shorts also in black. Whole black bear, front and back fur.<br>&nbsp;<br>A complete cornucopia of sight and sound, warm chlorine in the air. Maybe I couldn&#8217;t see Tim because I subconsciously thought my brain would over-describe him. I can see <em>these people<\/em>. I can see them too well.<br>&nbsp;<br>Boy band lifeguard is back.
