I remember this time of my life like it was yesterday. The family all over at the pool, the cool water meeting the warm sun turning all of our skin to a color of warm golden brown. The greasy and delicious hamburgers and hotdogs after swimming all day. The dads all drinking their beer and discussing their sports or whatever the world was concerned with. I didn't care as I was too young to know the difference between everything that was going on.
The cool and sweet watermelon that we ate poolside, cousins elbow to elbow all cramming in to grab a piece of the red fruit. The music floating on the air, tunes of Jimmy Buffet and Zac Brown Band completing this slice of heaven I got to call home. As the sun set the party only got louder and more fun as the lights in the pool kicked on. The kids waterlogged as can be floated around and enjoyed the life they lived.
