The Air Warms, But the Water's Cold, Aug. 12, 2009

I'm gonna catch up here pretty soon, we are in mid-August now. We used the boat a lot more once the air warmed up like August is supposed to be, but the water never really warmed up. But that was not going to stop us from swimming, no it wasn't. Although it did keep us to brief swimming, well actually we wore trunks...the men anyway. Very stimulating the water was. Love summer.Gregory looks like the water is cold no? He's joined in the brink by Ashley who was always game for a boat ride and a swim.
Ah, nothing like being on the water and catching some rays. Here's Gregory and Lizette, and out on the front deck is Barbara, Tonya and Dustin dangling their feet in the cool, clear water. Waaater. Okay, who's old enough to remember this tune and who made it famous?

The nights are cool and I'm a fool
Each star's a pool of water
Cool water
But with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
And carry on to water
Water, water, water
So we pulled into a dock and docked. Time for pizza at the Green Mill. Yes, that's why we swam first, so that we could eat after. Might get cramps ya know. Barbie awaits while Tonya runs after the pizza. Well, she was walking, who ever saw a pizza run? Seen a pizza box though.
Waitin' on the waiter for piece a pizza.

Mother and daughter. Such pretty smiles and great teeth. All the better to eat pizza with.

No I would not give you false hope now, on this strange and sunny day, 'cause a Mother and child reunion, is only a motion away.
What is this guy up too anyway? Is he as mischievous as he looks? What secrets does he hold? And why does he wear his glasses like that? And that shirt, are they orchids? Tulips?
Barbara Ann with a personal pan while getting a tan. What's with these two and the right hand on chin bit anyway?
Are they arm wrestling? Looks like the younger is losing, look at that grimace, while the elder takes it all in stride. But perhaps it is only one generation demonstrating the hippy shake to another.

For Goodness sake
I got the Hippy Hippy Shake
Yeah I got the Shake
Ooh, the Hippy Hippy Shake
The Family Prim. My oh Maya butters bread.
Well, that didn't last long, Maya crosses the deck and decides to adopt a more experienced couple.
Sundown on the water.

She's bin lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sweet Little Ashley Who'll charm the heck out of you or anyone. She's very talented. An actress, musician, singer, photographer, and all around bright, interesting and pleasant young woman.
Tonya and Dustin. A great couple. Here they have completely forgotten about everyday crap. Can you tell. We belong on the water. Yes we do.
Getting dark and heading for home. Warm summer nights, oh yeah. Rachelle and Barbara smile as Gregory and son Alex prepare to tie up the boat on the hundred yard dock.
A wonderful day on the water, and the water lilies welcome us back. They'll be here tomorrow too. Thank goodness.
