Non-Swimmer
I guess Uncle Elmer never learned to swim. At least he hadn't prior to visiting us in Alabama in the mid-60's. The trailer park we lived in had a community swimming pool that was actually pretty nice. There were two shallow pools and a larger one that had a deep end. The shallow end to the large pool was about 4 ft deep until you went about 20 ft towards the other end where it dropped steeply to about 10 ft. The 10 ft deep section was surrounded by a shelf about 1 ft wide that allowed people to stand in 4ft of water to rest a bit. I was standing on the shelf on the far end of the pool and Uncle Elmer was on the shalow end. He began to walk towards me, not realizing there was a deep part between us. I either didn't see this or was not aware of his non-swimmer status. Others told me he walked right into the deep end and sank like a bag of rocks. One of my friends was swimming nearby and saw this so he swam towrds Uncle Elmer and pushed him back to the shallow end. All was well. Uncle Elmer felt set up. Looking back now I don't blame him. There should have been some kind of divider, a rope or something between the levels. I'm sure he remembered this experience.
