OK. Here's the plan.

It has been chilly, wet and overcast and I haven't been doing regular maintenance around the pool area.  

This Friday 9/28/12 we will not be having Happy Hour pool side.

Next week is supposed to brighten and warm into the low to mid seventies Tuesday through maybe Friday.  Who really knows that far out?

So first I'll get things cleaned up around the pool and the happy pool house.  Then I'll see if I can fire up the heater for the first time this year.  I'll post the results of my efforts here.  Some of you might think it would be fun to swim in October.  I know I do.  If I do get the heater going, I'll let you know here as soon as I do. You might want to take advantage of a swim through the week.

We still might have one last poolside Happy Hour even if I can't get the heater up and running.  I'll let you know as soon as the weather prediction firms up.

I've been wanting to grill up some ribs all year.  Looks like Friday October 5th might be my last chance of the year to do so poolside.

Check back!

We are hoping for another Happy Hour yet this year.

No Happy Hour at pool side this Friday, 9/21 but maybe next Friday.

Check back.

The pool is still open but a little on the cool side.

We enjoyed a very nice night and good company

It started cooling down not long after 5 and became quite pleasant.

We had a diverse menu available.  I provided hot dogs and cincy chili sauce.  Beth made a summer angel hair spicy pasta dish good cold or hot.  It became an instant favorite with me!  Chris provided oriental orange chicken, Barry and Kathy served pizza and for desert we had brownies compliments of Nancy and Don.  There may well have been more but that was all I was able to handle.

There were about a dozen of us so we got to talk to talk to each other a little more than with a bigger turnout.  I liked Happy Hour very much.

Next chance for Happy Hour pool side is Friday September 21.  Check back as the date gets closer.

BTW, we had one number in the Mega Millions and one in PowerBall.  Our best showing in quite some time!
