Kathryn wanted to do something to honor the long weekend and rented a pool for the afternoon on Swimply (it’s like AirBnB, but for pools!) She’d done this once before for a surprise celebration of my 50th birthday and it was lovely then, and lovely again this time.
This pool was out in Cheviot. We convened with snack mix, watermelon, corn salsa, a bluetooth speaker and coolers filled with a variety of bubbly things. (If you haven’t tried Lagunitas Sparkling Hop Water, it’s quite refreshing, no alcohol and no calories.)
Afterward we popped over to Putz’s Creamy Whip for sundaes and milkshakes since we saved on all the calories by not drinking beer — a totally worthwhile tradeoff.
