Happy Hour this Friday July 25, weather permitting!

Friday day the pool will be closed until about 4:00.  
FYI pool closed Sunday for family day.

Come by any time 4ish and after.  I think I'll be grilling up a mess of ribs for us to enjoy.

Hope to see you Friday!


That's what I'm talking about ...

That was a nice little Happy Hour we had

It seemed like everyone enjoyed the beautiful weather.  The pool was about as warm as I ever remember, somewhere around 87!  We had several swimmers. The grilled burgers and chicken were good, the brats were too good.  Thanks to Beth for getting them at Al's Meat Market.  Highly recommended!

We hit a number or two on one of the lottery tickets.  We won a few bucks which will be reinvested next Happy Hour.

Here are a few pictures for you.

A delightful Friday in the forecast so come on down.

Weather channel says Friday at 5:00 PM: Mostly sunny and 81!

That's good enough for us.  Please join us for Happy Hour poolside Friday July 11.  

7-11 sounds kind of lucky to me.  Perhaps this is the Happy Hour that makes all in attendance wealthy? 
Powerball estimated cash value 23.4 million Mega estimated cash value over 18 million.  Not too shabby!

Hope to see you poolside!

By the way, the day-lilies are in full colorful bloom!

Thanks for a fine Happy Hour June 27! No Happy Hour Poolside for the 4th.

Amanda and Lilli made a first appearance this season. It was great to see them! It sounds like Nate will be able to make a few Happy Hours this year and we hope so.   Alan and Bonnie were present as was Peggy and her son Kolt.  Don and Nancy came over for a quick visit.  Mr. Campbell was first to arrive followed by Mr. Moore and Mr. Grove came by also.  I hope I included everyone.

The quesadilla's were very good indeed.  Thanks Beth and thank you all for the other snacks!

No luck with the Powerball or Mega.  As usual, we'll try again next time.  Hope to see you all soon.

Sounds like Friday's weather is going to be fabulous for Happy Houring!

And here's our culinary update, Beth is making quesadilla's for us to enjoy!

The pool temp is at 83 degrees and we are looking forward to seeing you!

We have a decent forecast for Friday, June 27. We are thinking Happy Hour!

One of us has gotten behind on yard and pool grounds maintenance.  With any luck, I'll be able to get caught up Friday and the weather will be fine for Happy Hour.

I'll be mowing and cleaning on Friday so feel free to stop by any time after 4:00 or 4:30 for a pre-Happy Hour swim.

As always, check back to see if we are still ON if the weather forecast changes for the worse.  

Oh yes, and some of the daylillies have come to bloom!

We had 3 wonderful weather Fridays in a row

The forecast for Friday June 20 is not so good.  So no Happy Hour poolside this Friday.  Check back next week!

It was a fine feast for Friday the 13th!

We had a dozen "feasters" for Happy Hour.  The Low Country Shrimp Boil went off as planned. Everyone seemed to get there fill.  The leftovers were served the next day.  Sunday's omlet was patato, sausage, corn and shrimp, surprised?  Last night was pasta with marinara, shrimp and sausage.  Man I love those Low Country Boils!

Here are a few pics to share.

Getting all set up

Chowing down

There is our full moon!

The pool deck had been diamond ground to a smooth white surface.  The installers didn't get a chance to finish the re-surfacing job until Monday.  We like it!

and after

Happy Hour weather looks pretty good!

Whereas Happy Hour will land on Friday the 13th and whereas there shall be a full moon, and whereas we have acquired a new cook-stove, we shall declare a Low Country Shrimp Boil for Happy Hour.

We'll make enough for about 20 folks.  If you bring a small side dish, it will stretch the eats out some.  Just come on over or if your sure you will attend, you can shoot us an e-mail or text or call.

We'll plan on putting the potatoes in the pot somewhere around 6:00.  Should start with the feast about 6:30.

I'd be happy to scoop out a bit of the good starter stuff before the last ingredient goes in, that would be shrimp, that is if shrimp doesn't suite your system. (Tom?)  Be sure to let me know in advance. 

Other news:  All the nature stone scheduled to be removed has been.  Custom Concrete Coatings will be coming in Friday early morning to prep the pool deck for their treatment.  They said it would not be a problem for Happy Hour.  They will hold off on treatment application until Monday so that we can use the pool Saturday, which is likely to be a delightful pool day.

The new cooker!

High school friends Happy Hour a great time I think!

Lots of wonderful folks, plenty of good food, no shortage of beverages and perfect weather!  Take a look.
