After today our neighborhood pool closes until next summer. So we took the kids for one last afternoon of water fun. What was really cool was at 5pm when the pool officially closed to us... and opened to the neighborhood dogs. At the end of every pool season they let everyone bring their dogs to swim in the pool for about an hour. It was HILARIOUS. The kids were all mesmerized. They sat at the edge of the pool watching in wonder at all of these "puppies" taking a turn in their pool. Once or twice they even jumped into the baby pool to join in on the fun. (And were of course shortly ushered out by a "concerned" older dog owner.) It was one of the most entertaining hours we've had in a while. I see the doggie swim becoming a tradition for the Seward household.
watching the pups from the sidelines
they couldn't help themselves - they had to get a closer look
splashing around with the dogs
Molly took no notice that she was half the size of most of the dogs
when she was told the pool was for the dogs and not people, she decided the logical solution was to become a puppy herself ;)
