Water Games for Those With Tight Fists and Strong Stomachs

The girls love to swim. I'm too cheap to buy a daily pass at the local pool, opting for an "odd" pass instead. (No, it isn't a pass for "odd people." You may use your pass on all odd numbered days. It was almost 2/3 cheaper than a daily pass, and I knew we wouldn't swim every day even if I sprang for one.) Therefore, I have a 5 year old child who wishfully asks, "Is it an odd day today?" Tuesday, unfortunately, was EVEN. What were 2 water lovers to do?

Luckily, some water was running down the gutter. UNLUCKILY, it had run through my neighbor's horse pasture before hitting the street. That was no deterrent on a hot July day.



Oh, yeah, drink it up, Kiki.



On the agenda post swim?
Sterilization and Pepto.

I was recently reminscing about swinging in your front yard as a child as the irrigation water flowed through...horse poop and all. We lived - so will Kiki and Kate. What's Kiki going to do with her bikini when winter hits?
