It's a little thing, but I think it says a lot

When I was a kid, a trip to the swimming pool on a hot summer day included time on the diving board. First just jumping off the low board, then diving, then trips to the high board that eventually included flips and gainers. Some of which hurt, when missed, but it was part of growing up, competing with the other kids (follow the leader) and was a lot of fun. I haven't seen a diving board around here. The pools have water slides instead, and I think it's sad, but very indicative of the times in which we live.
