Pool Fun and Clarification

Our nephew Mark and his boys Daniel and Austin came over for some promised pool fun yesterday.  And to clarify, and so you don't think we're official members of the Polar Bear Club, yes our pool is heated.  We usually don't go in the water in the winter until the water temp is 85F.  So in spite of the low 70s temps yesterday, the boys were warm in the water.  I'll let you be the judge of how much fun they had.

Daniel's victory dance - you can see the ball just dropping through the net.

And a victory swim with the winning ball.

 

One more clarification I wanted to make.  The distance between our home in Edmonton and this one in Arizona is about 2500kms.  We can drive it in just over two days, stopping at night along the way.  But we prefer the three hour flight due south.  That's why there's such a disparity in the landscape and climate...from the frozen north to the Arizona desert.
