The big pool

Sunday, yesterday, after I told the kids, including a few kids from da 'hood, to be quiet because Emily's sleeping, I realized that it would be a good time to just go to the big pool. So, I invited the next door neighbor and her daughter, along with a couple kids that she was entertaining. The weather was frickin awesome, as it is most days round hya. It was quite a packed house because of what I didn't really think of until we got there, it's Memorial Day weekend, which was really not a big deal. Actually, we were fortunate enough to have the only two available chairs waiting for us when we got there. So, we lounged while the kids went down the water slide and played in the ice-cold water. Then, after an hour or so, the neighbor and I agreed to move shop over to the, 'warmer because the water isn't continually recirculated by waterfalls and the water slide', 'lounge pool when it isn't being used for a lap pool'.

We had to sit in the grass over there but that was ok. There is a large hill that faces the pool with nice plush, green grass. The pool wasn't overcrowded because most of the people there were lounging in the chairs, sunbathing. It was quite nice. We stayed there for another hour or so after re-applying the sunscreen.
