Man, it's hot today.

This is one of those late August, shimmering dog days that says, "Go out and do something summery - go now, before it's too late". Jump in the pool, go lie on the beach, go out to a ball game. Go sit on a boat, or picnic by a lake. It's so hot you almost don't want to - but you know, in your heart of hearts, that if you don't get one more good sweat, one more lazy day, this time you might regret it. Labor day is just around the corner - and we all know what that means. Schools are in, our members are all back in town, the academic year is starting for our training programs, the phone starts ringing again. You might get another good month of hot days, but it won't matter, because you'll be busy in the office and busy doing "stuff" on the weekends.

We went and baked ourselves red at the Little Falls pool. We went at the hottest time of day, just for the heck of it; the thermostat read 97 degrees. We ate hotdogs, and greasy pizza, and a salted pretzel. Jackson practiced pouring buckets of water on everyone who was willing. Bo just practiced being cute, and getting in and out of the baby pool, over and over again. She's a master at it now. We're now home, exhausted, too hot, but the airconditioning is blasting, we're going to have a nap... and it was so worth it.

Enjoy yours. Report back!
