Friday

Another session comes to an end - thanks to all you parents for suffering through the heat - the kids were eager to get in the water. I'm taking a week off for a short road trip with my grandkids - six flags, boating and a zip line. Be back on August 1st.

Thursday

Looks like we'll have a few more clouds today but storms should stay far south. That's the forecast anyway! Water is 88 so we are good to go.

Another hot one on the deck! At least there is a wind today to help cool things off a bit. Lots of sun screen again!

Tuesday

Wow- heat wave is an understatement! Lots of sunscreen today - the deck is super hot so be sure little ones have something on their feet.

Monday

First day of session 5. Forecast promises some very hot temps with a chance of thunderstorms thrown. Let's hope the storms come later in the day. We were in and out of the water all day Friday - just when it looked like things were clearing, in rolled the thunder again. This week we welcome, Kylie and Darcy for their 2nd session, Henry for another session along with his friend Eli, Andrew for his 2nd session and his friend AJ, newcomers Ella and Jackson, Spencer, Colby, newcomers Mike, Anne, Darby, Lucia, and Anna, Lauren and Josh for another lesson, and finally Rachel and Samantha.

Storm

Lessons on hold again - storm has to pass - call if you have questions

Another update

Really dark and blowing right now - Jenna and Jason, we'll try and get you in as soon as this blows over - according to the radar, this should be the end of it for awhile

Update

Unless the thunder and lightning come up again, I'm heading out for the 11:00 lesson

Oh oh

Big cell coming thisway - stay tuned!

Friday

Last day of session 4. Yesterday morning was quite wet - both in and out of the pool. Forecast this morning looks pretty good - afternoon could be a different story - stay tuned.

Thursday afternoon

Well we made it through a cold rainy morning - sitting here eating lunch and the sun is trying to come out. Yay! Be aware that all the chairs on the deck are quite wet - bring something to sit on. We still could get rain or storms this afternoon so be prepared.

Thursday

Interesting day coming up. It's cool - in the 60's, but the water temp is 88. We probably will get some rain which we will try and swim through. Be alert for thunder and lightning - we may have to abandon the pool suddenly. If that happens, I will come in and update this blog.

Yesterday morning turned out to be rather chilly for lessons - today promises to be wonderful. Get the sunscreen out!

Tuesday

66 for a temp, clouds, might see a few sprinkles but water is 88 so we are good to go!

Monday

Beginning of session 4 - a few clouds right now but the forecast is for sunny and warm. We have a couple issues for today , however - my pump quit working yesterday so the water temp is lower than I like for lessons - we're at 85 degrees. Thank goodness for Doug Grandahl from Pool and Spa Boy. He says he will have a replacement by the end of today. The second issue is retaining wall work that begins today. You will have to use the gate on the north side of the house. Swimmers for this session are - Sam for his second session, Kylie, Darcy, Thomas, Molly, Andrew, Izzy for her second session, Spencer, Colby, Gabe, Jenna, Jason, Ava, Liam, Sebastion, and Boden.

Friday

We made it through another session without a mishap! This week the order of day was sunny and hot - a very good week to be in the pool. Congratulations to all you swimmers - you worked very hard. I'll be taking the next week off to visit with my sister from Illinois and my brother from Kentucky. Both arrive this weekend with their families.
