We are just back from the pool and let me tell you, I'm

It sounds to me like you should go to the manager of your town, or the town council. If it's a city-owned pool, they should be aware of what's going on. If you don't want to go to the town council, a strongly worded letter would do, but not email. You could copy what you sent to the DIS boards, it was very clear and understandable.

I am glad your son's ok. How scary!

I don't know about Boston, but I know that when it comes to fireworks, I'm terribly spoiled! For years we have gone up to my in-laws house on the 4th because we can watch our small town's fireworks from the comfort of their front porch. This year, as the fireworks were going off, I found myself singing the words to "Wishes" and wishing I was in the MK because our dinky fireworks can't even compare! And as we were riding home, Ken said the same thing before I even had a chance to!

Uh-oh, I think that's my fault. Gail asked me to post, and I forgot to set a reminder to myself. Sorry Gary!

A quick update on our pool situation.

I just heard from the manager of all of the Park District pools. Ironically, he told me that he was at that same pool about 5 p.m. on Monday and told the manager on duty they were way overstaffed for the day and it was time to send some of the lifeguards home. Apparently, the Manager on duty decided against the suggestion. This man that I spoke to said they have these kinds of problems when they are not busy enough.

First question he asked was whether or not Walker was okay. I give him credit there as he was the first who bothered.

He told me he will defnately be taking the issue up with the manager, as well as the guards. Like Gary & I feel, he also feels that as long as the guards are doing their jobs and not goofing off, there isn't a problem using the facilities on their breaks. This man also told me that these are my tax dollars being used to pay for their goofing off and that's unacceptable.

This manager said that the guards need to follow the rules set forth by the pool and apparently, in this case, they were not.

I told him how we hope that next time we go to the pool there aren't any problems. That's when he gave me his phone number to contact him if there are any issues -- now or in the future. I hope we don't, as this pool is my kid's pool of choice.

Maybe we'll head over there tonight.

Cindy, that's great that the over-all manager contacted you. Good to know that the person in charge really does care about what's going on at the pools. I'm sure having his phone number is peace of mind, even though you hope not to have to use it.
