The advent of summer means many things: school's out, little league baseball, trips to LA and afternoons at the pool. Our pools were upgraded this winter, one added a waterslide and the other a splashground (a playground with water canons, fountains and all manner of contraptions that can get you wet). We have wasted not time, in exploring these new amenities, but are still enjoying our old favorites such as the diving boards.
One concern is this year we have a new concessionaire at the pools, and while they are offering many new items they took away our beloved harbinger of summer, the snocone. I have had a word with them, and as they realized the profit you could reap selling ice with a tiny bit of syrup, I had the feeling that snocones would not be absent for too many more days. Good thing too, it is supposed to be 95 tomorrow!

Here are the postcards that were sent to Michael and Alex's grandparents and greatgrandparents via Cardstore.com. I think of them as a mixture of public relations and propaganda. Read enough of their lives, and you can consider yourself a virtual grandparent/aunt/uncle. There are worse things.
