People have begun asking if the boys realize that summer weather is over and winter cold is fast approaching. My answer, "they are in heavy denial and have seasonal amnesia."
The pools closing for the season was quite the tragedy. Luckily our town pool is off the beaten path of what we normally take when traveling into town. Unfortunately the town closest to us has their pool located right next to the main highway and we pass it frequently.
The boys thought that because the other town's pool still had water in it that they could swim there instead of our town's bone dry one. Well this week-end on our way past this "marvelous" pool, I hear Lucas holler, "MOM! The water is gone, where did it go, who took it?"
I tried to explain what draining a pool was about but that was only followed by a very disgruntled, muttered, "it broke." We had a moment of silence for the end of summer.
