Beating the heat

For the last few days, we've had our first really warm and humid days of the summer. Unfortunately, the air conditioner in our new place doesn't appear to be working very well (although our landlord is so good that I'm sure we'll have it fixed soon - a good landlord is one of the real perks of renting), so we eventually set up Margaret's new wading pool on the back patio. Heading into such an event, who knows what the kid's reaction will be, but she had a grand time (just wait and the photos will enlarge as they rotate - or click on the photos to enlarge them, and click again to shrink them.)
