Water

Inflatable pool

full of dad's hot air

I was three years old

splashin' everywhere

And so began

my love affair

with water

On a river bank

with all my friends

A big old rope

tied to a limb

And you're a big old wuss

if you don't jump in

the water

And when that summer sun

starts to beatin' down

And you don't know what to do

Grab your swimming trunks,

ice up that old Igloo

And drive until the map turns blue

Hope you enjoyed a brief glimpse into our lake vacation this summer. We had so much fun vacationing with the Flynt side of the family up in MO. Much thanks to Brad Paisley for letting me borrow the lyrics for this post. I chose to use the first half of the song; the latter half is not appropriate for the little ones. Hah! Until our next lake vacation...

Very Nice. I was wondering about the nice poem. I must not have heard that song. I was admiring the eloquence.

Nice pics too.
