Staying Local - the "chilly" summer continues

Usually Me, Jen, and the boys don't part ways but we did this afternoon.  Feeding Dash's love-affair with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jen and Dash went to the movies. Love this kung-fu shot!  Although, he's looking more like he's posing like a bodybuilder.

I put Hugo on the back of a bike and pedaled to Astoria Pool.  This season of outdoor fun has been somewhat tragic, mainly with swimming.  The past few summers, when the middle of August rolled around, we were well into the dog days--ninety degree temps and high humidity.  Today, it struggled to even get to eighty.  Although we've had humidity, we've had barely five days over ninety.  The Astoria Pool, below, is normally packed at this time of year but as you can see, a few hearty souls braving the chilly water and air (once you get out of the pool).  Poor, stick-thin Hugo practically turns blue after 20 minutes in the pool.

That said, I am not going to complain that much, I am not a fan of sweating to death and the weather's been delightful. Just not for swimming adventures.
