Elizabeth! I like the sound of being able to swim with the Mic-Key. Although this is my third time around with the PEG I've always had it out by summer. I've been wondering how to handle swimming with it.
I think I'm going to put up a stink to get a button (in spite of the issues raised by Charm - although I'm sure they'll come back and bite me in the ass, uh I mean stomach). You'd think they'd be able to manufacture an adult size version! What's with that!!?? If it worked fairly easily who wouldn't want it!? Hmm, maybe there's an investment opportunity there...
I'll keep you guys posted on my adventure.
