when swimming in Lake Havasu, I can't get close to the bouys
(spelling??). if anything touches me while i am in the water, i
freak! such as weeds....i also can't bring myself to swim anywhere
that i cannot touch/see the bottom. its weird; i'm ok at swimming, i
just freak out if i cant touch the bottom.
