Summer Heat Escape 101
July 10, 2008 – 10:50 amOk it is a whopping 107 this week on average! I live in the center of Hell? No I just live in a very hot place. So I was talking with one of my girlfriends. We’ll call her Val.
Val gal is keeping cool by "using pools". Here is how her scheme goes down.
THE BAIT
There are a good portion of old people in Val’s church group. They happen to have all their children gone and grown. Val brings up to them durring a hall chat about how hot it is and how her three children love to swim. This almost always triggers an invitaition from these wonderful folks who love to "offer" their useless pool to those in need durring the summer. Now I have had the offer given and it is almost always a "known" you don’t take up on said offer. Only she DOES! Now she has the Kelley’s on Monday, Weston’s on tuesdays, the Johnson’s pool available on Wednesdays and Fridays, and even her neigbor named Jerry is in on the action! Pool owners are glad the pool is getting some use. And Val and her kids are keeping really cool. Val just added some of her husband’s work friends who offered at a work party. I am savy now for next year. I can buy a new summer wardrobe with the money I’ll save on my season pass to the public pool. And I won’t have to swim near great uncle Ned who thinks his "eurpopean" banana hammock is the new rage this summer!
Val and I are also going to a secret undisclosed location to escape children and husband’s for a while. Details on that adventure comming soon!
