First swim of the season

Just returned from a brief ride in the passenger position - yeah, I'm getting older and besides, gas is too damn expensive to use up going to the same place together.
First leg to the local Harley dealer for a replacement piece for his exhaust system. A part you can't find online, or in their catalog, or in their store for that matter. It's conveniently considered a "special order", which means you pay now and wait until next week to see if it comes in! Such is life.
Second leg, swung by his place of employ to pick up the donated Walleye he left in the shop freezer last night. Who says you can't have a Friday fish fry on Saturday?"
Back at the home front I decided the dining room window, the only window left in the house that can't be cleaned from the inside, was due for a spit shine. Ended up doing all of the lower house. Now I was in the cleaning/organizing mood, but I had my "chores" done before 9AM, so I hunted him down to see if he wanted to tackle the garage (overdue by 4 years).
I found him staring into the pool, watching the droid clean the bottom and he's muttering..."sure looks like a guy could dive in." So I helped him fulfill a daydream - sandals, jeans and all.
Miraculously, he didn't have his wallet on him, but I keeping it on me the rest of the day for insurance! Today's temp - a breezy 78, water temp - a cool 54!
