As all six of us-four humans, two dogs-swim out from the shade of the hill into the sunlight, we’re like a school of dolphins or a family of otters. We’re nowhere near as skillful swimmers as those aquatic acrobats; but water seems to affect us as it does them, making us more sociable and playful.... We converse silently through the ripples and wakes our fins and flippers and paws trail behind us, and if we do speak, our words sound a bit like the murmuring gabble of a raft of ducks or, if we’re clowning and boisterous, like the hooting of loons. (R.K.)
