There&#8217;s a splash in the pool at the base of the slide.  The circles are lights inside the pool, so they can swim at night if they want to.  Chelsea&#8217;s mom appears to be wearing a dress and heels while lying on a wheeled deck chair.

Looks like little Barack wasn&#8217;t invited.  The large thing behind them is a ladder so they can climb out of the pool.  Or possibly a diving board.  On the face of it, it looks like Robert&#8217;s the only one in the pool and everybody else has cheated and gotten out, but I may be misinterpreting.  At any rate, it looks like everybody&#8217;s smiling and happy, so that&#8217;s good.<br \/>\n<br clear=all><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvini.org\/images\/legwarmers\/legwarmertake1.jpg\" target=\"blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tvini.org\/images\/legwarmers\/legwarmertake1-thumb.jpg\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" align=\"right\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In knitting, no way is this going to be a size 4T legwarmer.  Time to rip it out and de-biggen it.<\/p>\n<p>All the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cantstoptheserenity.com\/\" target=\"blank\">Can&#8217;t Stop the Serenity<\/a> Jayne hats should be at their destinations, except for Dallas&#8217;s bonus &#8220;baby Jayne&#8221; and Raleigh&#8217;s hat, both of which should arrive tomorrow.  There&#8217;s a chance I may not be able to make the full Serenity screening here in town &#8211; I may know tonight &#8211; but if I can&#8217;t then Em and I will go to the pre-show festivities and drop off the hat.  I think Em would enjoy the costume contest and hearing Cedric the Bard.  She enjoyed him when we went to that bar uptown.  Yes, I took my daughter to a bar.  What?  I needed a designated driver.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WIeYWVmgTXc\" target=\"blank\">Here&#8217;s a link<\/a> to a YouTube video of the Bedlam Bards, of which Cedric is one half, singing &#8220;Hero of Canton&#8221; when they performed in Charlotte at Ri-Ra&#8217;s.  The sound and video quality aren&#8217;t that hot, but you get the gist.  They put on a good show.  But no, sadly, those aren&#8217;t my Jayne hats that they&#8217;re wearing.  At the very end, a young woman is twirling around one of my boxes, as I donated a hat to the raffle that they&#8217;re about to give away.<\/p>\n<p>There are actually fewer than 10 Jayne hats in line, for a wait time of less than a month.  It&#8217;s a miracle!  WOO!  See, if you want to order, NOW is the time, because come August it&#8217;s going to start shooting back up again as people start to think about Halloween, Christmas, and cooler weather in general.<\/p>\n<p>Time to hang out more clothes &#8211; it&#8217;s nice and sunny, but not oppressively hot.  Looks like a great day for soccer!<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;or &#8220;How Hillary Spent Her Summer Vacation.&#8221; I&#8217;m sorry, Em&#8217;s choice of names just amuses me. &#8220;Bill and Chelsea went into Chelsea&#8217;s pool.
