Pool Update #2 for 2010

Since you are most likely asking yourself "how's the pool?", I am happy to report:

Pool water is a perfect 84 degrees

It is chemically perfect, but this is because of my vigilance

It is literally an oasis, but you knew that already

I have some work to do on the stones and landscaping around the oasis

Swimming daily, sometimes with a cold brew-ski after a long day

In other news:
Spent the day at the fields yesterday for in-town baseball leagues. Hot. My oldest guested on a team at noon, then my Majors team laid a whoopin' on a coach that irked me. At 4PM, I donned the gear to ump a game, then my youngest played two games (I coached the first one), one as a guest player.

As for irking me - I was short a player, so we added a guest. When my last player finally showed about an hour late ("thought it stated at 3, coach") the opposing HC wouldn't let the guest continue, even as a DH. I didn't like the response I got, so I put the hammer down for the rest of the game and beat them 16-5. It's best to not irk me.
