a dry park day
Oct 20th, 2022
Nobody went in the water at Park Day yesterday, not even in the boats. It's not so much that it's cold (or not just that it's cold), there's just so much pond weed and muck that it's a little gross. I'm not going to say for sure that we're done with lake water for the rest of the year, but I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case. That's fine, it's had a good run: the kids jumped in for the first time this year in March and we had the boats out by mid-April. Which means just five short months til we're swimming again! And in the meantime we're having lots of fun on wheels and with balls, and eagerly waiting for the ice to form. Who needs a playground?!
