What are you doing right now?

Drinkg beer on a boat headed to a baseball game in D.C.

Sounds like fun! Or, at least the beer on a boat.

Sitting around waiting til I can rinse this dye out of my hair. Then I need to figure out what to do with the kids--the weather change messed up my plans. Beautiful day and we need to take advantage of it somehow!

Find a pool. It's going to be 90 and humid.

We were supposed to go to the Children's Museum because I also need to go to Whole Foods... but that's nowhere near swimming. I could drive 20 miles further (about 40 miles in all, one-way) to the Whole Foods that is near the shore, but that seems like a waste when I could just go to my grandparents' cottage 12 miles away and swim. Did I mention that I don't have A/C and I do have leather seats in my car? :lol:

There are a couple nice pools in the Hartford area that would be close to Whole Foods, Goodwin, Keeney, Pope parks should all have pools and I am sure you don't plan on swimming after dark so you should be all set!

I'm such a crowd-a-phobe I don't usually think of public swimming pools. Have you been to any of them? I know there's a sprinkler system set up at the park around the corner from Trader Joe's (the name escapes me at the moment) but that also gets very busy on hot days. The dog can go without food for a couple more days, right? :lol: I have a couple ideas... just need to decide. I swear I have adult ADD...

God, I would never go to those pools, but did notice that Batterson Park listed it has a beach area on the lake, think they are in Farmington so it should be safe there.

Saw this warning listed on under "Spray pool/pads

"Please do not let children sit on spray heads. This can cause injury!!":lol:

What are you, chicken?

My parents never let us go to public pools when I was a kid. They said they were basically big petri dishes. I think we're heading down to the shore. I was avoiding it originally because we're going there Friday as well with a friend and her daughter, but I have to go out anyway....

I belong to the public pool in my town. It's walking distance from my house so I go often. It's great there. Clean, waterslides, diving board, fun.

I'm thinking it was a Northeast regional type event today :smash:

Back from Walnut Beach in Milford. Not bad for a completely random pick.

Quite shallow, which is great because the kids can't swim yet. When the tide went out, we could walk really far out and found a lot of wildlife. Walking on live snails, though, was a bit freaky. (They're the black specks in that photo above.)

Taking advantage of Southwest's birthday sale pricing and booking some flights to Florida for the family for a combo meeting/vacation trip in October

Heading to Philly...again.
