Summer Days, Driftin' Away...

My in-laws opened their pool, but at first it was still too cold for even Charlie to go into, as the heater was broken. "It's too cold for me," he said, after dipping his hand in. "Only penguins could swim in it."

However..The Husband managed to fix the heater, and before long it was warm enough for Charlie to swim in.*











*i.e., still too cold for everyone else, but too warm for, say, penguins

"Only penguins could swim in it." TOO. CUTE.

Cute pics.

Of course, I now have this urge to go rent Meatballs from Netflix ...

We are the CITs so piteous;
The kids are rats the food is hideous!
We're gonna smoke and drink and fool around
We're nookie bound ...
We're the Northstar CITs!

Our pool was only 62 when we opened and filled it - definitely penguin water, if you ask me. But the girls went in it anyhow, not for long, but it was probably refreshing after the 90 degree day.

Looks like he had a great time - glad the weather's warming up over the water, it's still a bit too chilly here for me!

hehe as i go off later and try to convert 62 and 90 to normal temperatures spare a thought for those of us that have kids dragging out the ski gear and practicing pizza stops in the lounge.
it is a toasty 10 degrees celsius as out high today...not quite beach weather. although after those photos am tempted to dig up the back yard and put in the pool for next summer....lol but would probably end up like the ensuite sitting there look pretty and never work.
sighs ...summer, warmth, bbqs, sunshine after four pm......
