Independence Day Spray

We had a ball with Cousin Levi over the Fourth of July holiday weekend. With the temperatures cresting in the mid-nineties, the best thing to do was play it cool in the water. Mommy pre-filled the pool so the water temperature would be comfortable and set the sprinkler on high for maximum benefit. The boys decided to invite the slides to the party and pushed them under the sprinkler’s spray. They soon learned a lesson on friction, namely that a wet slide has very little. After their initial surprise, they loved the faster function of the wet slide. While Levi was mostly content to enjoy a cool pool bath, Benji preferred sliding and diving into the pool while Davey ran repeated through the spray and failed miserably to avoid the water drops. By the end of the day, our little patriots had been thoroughly baptized in Independence Day fun.
