Boundaries of Leisure Provide Joy

Fences around swimming pools provide security from the outside world, and ensure safety both inside and outside the fence.

The lines are painted onto the bottom of a pool to provide the foundational structure for swimming activities. This is a view you do not see every day, as pool managers attend a facility training.
