The Pool

[Jack-Jack]

It opened today. The smells are so comforting. Chlorine and coconuts.

When does your pool open?

Well, at the rate spring is coming.......it will be July before the pools around here open. There was supposed to be snow here today (thank god they were wrong) and it is still REALLY cold.

We don't have a pool...we have a Bay. Open year round, but not really useable until about June. Although I saw some brave soul in a wetsuit swimming last weekend.

I had a dream last night that I was lying by a pool filled with YAGermeister while sitting under an umbrella, drinking a nice coconut flavored beverage while petting a sheep.

Otherwise, we'll open our pool after our end of May Disney vacation. Until then, I can dream.

Next Saturday, just in time for Mother's Day.

You have quite the obsession with my sheep.

I thought passing out led to "dreamless slumber." Maybe in your case, it leads to odd DIS-related dreams.

I love that smell along with a line from Jimmy Buffett "watchin' the sun bake;
All of those tourists covered with oil.
Strummin' my six string on my front porch swing.
Smell those shrimp
They're beginnin' to boil."

We probably won't open ours for another 2 weeks. The weather is still a little too iffy around here. The water probably won't be warm enough for another month.

As far as DH and DS are concerned, they'll be in it in a couple of weeks. It's normally July before it's even remotely warm enough for me. I did sit beside it today and watch the chlorinating duck swim around.

Our town pool opens the last day of school, June 27th. Our backyard pool opens whenever my husband gets around to it. (Probably Memorial Day). The bay and ocean don't warm up until July. No coconuts here.

I dunno when our neighborhood pool opens.

I did see a baby copperhead in my new backyard today, though. DH smashed it on the head with a 2x4.

Ahhh, summer.

We opened ours a couple of weeks ago when it was very warm here on the Cape, but now it's back in the 50's. I'll turn the heater on tomorrow so we can swim this week! It looks so pretty when it's opened.

If you think they are brave, a friend of mine and I went to OC for the weekend back in Nov and I got up Sat morning to watch sunrise and there was a brave soul (aka nutjob) out in SHORTS taking his surfboard and got in the water!!!!!!! I took pictures to prove that I didn't make that up!

I really take offense to that. A true lady does not "pass out", we fall into a YAGermeister induced slumber that allows us to revisit threads of days passed.

Now if you will excuse me dear sir, I am taking my coconut and going home.

p.s. where do I get one of those coconut pics for my signature and how do I put it in? I fear the coconut. Can we make him hold an umbrella while standing in a 5 gallon bucket of water?

You have piqued my interest.

Hey!

At first glance, I thought the picture in your post was of Mickey sitting on a toilet!!
