Saturday July 4, 2009

Susie, Carol, and Dolores arrived on Friday, July 3. It was the earliest they had arrived in years with plenty of pool time and we did get in the pool! Susie loved being able to be in the pool at night. A travel day, so we ordered in pizza, had mango champagne cocktails (the first drink of the day) and went to bed fairly early.

The first full day and the 4th of July! So we had a late lunch of burgers, corn on the cob, and pasta salad. Eveyone spent as much time in the pool as was humanly possible. Susie was amazed at how warm the water was. The past few years have been plagued with late rainfalls that kept the pool temperature a little cool, but this year the water is perfect.

More arrivals. Lucy and Nancy drove in around 3:30pm in a Mazda 5. Swimsuits were on in minutes and the pool was fabulous. It was a rough day, hanging out in the pool and the gazebo, talking and laughing. You have to have stamina to be an Austinas Locas.

Drink of the day - White Sangria
