Memorial Day


We took a little trip up to the northeast part of the state for Memorial Day. Part of the trip was for planting flowers and visiting John's family. But part of the trip was to help Uncle Walter and Beth initiate the pool for the 2006 season. Uncle Walter had cranked the Heatmore up to full blast to warm the 33,000 gallons of water in the pool. Yep, the temperature is 80 degrees. Boy! Was it cold when first entering; but after a moment or two, it seemed to warm right up. Thank Goodness!

Uncle Walter and Beth had some friends over, too. Check out the huge umbrella at the shallow end of the pool. We spent some time in the shade.

Here is a view of the pool from the shallow end.
We had fun swimming and playing in the water. What a gorgeous day for the official initiation of the pool! We had a scrumptious dinner of ribs, asparagus from Fritz's garden, macaroni salad and excellent chocolate chip cookies for dessert.

We returned home to find new blossoms on the Cape Primrose. Very pretty!

Hello Martha,

Your post looks really good, I am jealous. How did you get the text to wrap around the pictures? You are looking like a pro. Now it is your turn to give me lessons.
