My mother had noticed some calcium deposits on the pool tiles. I'm sure they've been there for years, but I never noticed them. I think this tendency to notice such details has something to do with having two X chromosomes. She started working on them with a pumice stone.

Now my mother is a mighty Amazon warrior, but she is also 90 years old, and I thought to help this project along with my comparative youth and strength. Monday was a major public holiday in the USA, and, having some free time I would not otherwise have had, I went into the pool to pursue removing the calcium deposits.

I spent about an hour in there making considerable progress and wearing away most of her pumice stone, finally giving up and moving to other projects. Last night and today I noticed that I had developed a mild sunburn on my shoulders, upper back and upper chest. I guess the top layer of pool water doesn't attenuate ultraviolet radiation as much as I thought it did, and I can't wear sunscreen underwater. There's a good reason to wear a shirt in the pool.
