Hot off the pool deck - an exciting new addition to the crew: Jump Rope Guy. I doubt anyone could ever displace Dry Hair Guy as my favorite pool character, but Jump Rope Guy is giving him a good run for his money. How? Well, for starters, he was, as you might guess, jumping rope on the pool deck. But wait - there's more. He also seems to share the FBD's incredible aversion to the sun, so he was stylishly clad in a t-shirt do rag, some type of burhka contraption and the scuba diving boots shown here. Yes, it was quite a look.
This entire situation was quite odd, even for a pool, which is all know are magnets for those losing their grip on reality. First of all, if one is concerned about sun exposure, I believe jumping rope is one of those exercises that can very successfully be executed inside. Taking this one step further, if you ARE going to do it outside, why on the pool deck? He never actually entered the water, so it's not as though this was some type of top secret jump rope/swim brick that's all the rage somewhere.
I DESPERATELY wanted to get a pic of the rope wrkt, but alas, the camera was stashed in the locker, so you're just going to have to take my word for it.
I love the pool.
FBD
