Girl Scouts Pool Party

It's not unusual to see us at the pool. But this obviously wasn't at Robin Hill Pool.

Veronica was invited to an end-of-the-year swim party for her Girl Scout troop this weekend. Curious to see what the pool was going to be all about, I set about to use some simple technology to find out.

It was a matter of plugging the street address into Google maps. From the looks of it, this swanky home in Bellevue had nice curb appeal. So that passed the initial test.

 

The final step was to take a bird's eye view of the pool itself. Of course, when a photo like this is taken in the winter or spring, it's not so appealing. But the fact that it was an in-ground pool and had a diving board gave it a passing grade.

As for the swimming, the girls gave it a passing grade, although the water was a bit too cool for me. We did have a nice game of "Simon Says" which might go down as the first I can remember being played in a swimming pool.

Thanks, Veronica, for letting us join you at your Girl Scouts swim party!
