canyonwalkerThis past weekend was pleasant. In addition to going wine tasting on Saturday— which was my first wine tasting trip since before the Pandemic 😧 if my blog is accurate, yikes!— I got in some #PoolLife on Friday and Sunday.
Friday I cut out early from work, heading out to the pool around 3pm. Hawk was already out there with our friends Barbara and Jesse and their son. Jesse had cut out early from work, too.
Since I was late to the pool party I stayed late, too, after everyone else headed in or headed out to their next thing. Visiting with friends for a while was fun, but so was enjoying the peace and quiet next to the pool alone. I've felt drained from work a lot recently so taking it easy relaxing quietly by the pool was just my speed.
Cooler-than-normal weather this summer in California has continued. Friday was another cooler-than-average day. It was just as well I wasn't gung-ho about swimming in the pool because it wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy it. It was a beautiful day, though, for soaking the hot tub— which I did— and then sitting in the shade, reading.
Sunday afternoon I spent a while out by the pool again. Again it was a few degrees cooler than normal— and even this weather is warmer than much of the past week. This time I decided to use the pool for a while despite it not being quite warm enough. It was okay for a while, but I tired of it quicker than on a warmer day. We soaked in the hot tub for a while after that then stretched out on lounge chairs to read while drying.
Now it's Monday, which means back to work for me. And it's an early-ish day because I'm headed to the airport for a day-trip to Phoenix. Here I am grousing about it being shy of 80° at home... it's been 110°+ in Phoenix lately!
