With the recent ongoing bitter cold, Today's "Friday Flashback" will focus on warmer (and in some cases HOTTER) times:

Pool pic #1...This was taken on one of the hottest days in the last decade. A couple summers ago when it reach well into the 100's. Demon was playing lifeguard watching over the others in the pool.

Last year, on the first day we opened the pool.

A photo from late summer last year.

Same VERY hot day mentioned above...Dogs seeking shelter from the sun under the trampoline.

Rose enjoying the pool.

Always a welcome sight...The first poplar blooms of the spring!

Our first (and beloved late) horse Dan, after we first got him. This photo was taken at our old house. It was a very peaceful August Sunday morning.

And finally...Billy enjoying the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer!
