“The sun is out, the coals are hot, and the pool is luke.”
These memorable words were first uttered by Owen Wilson, whose voice is indelibly seared into my brain thanks to the Cars saga (of course thanks to Star Wars, I now refer to all movie series as sagas — and by the way, did any of you notice that OW is now the voice of Hertz Car Rental? I thought so, you film buffs).
My husband and I repeat them often, as the pool where we swim most weekends is maintained at lukewarm-degrees all year round.
Of course, while I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to take the kids swimming, outdoors, right in the heart of downtown San Francisco, I (like any other sensible woman) cherish the thought of a beach vacation in sunnier climes. Hence my need to shop vicariously when my sister announced she was going to Hawaii for a week with her husband and my niece.
I splurged on a new swimsuit and scored the awesome linen pants below which I have yet to wear…and you can check out our mood board on the Eagle’s Nest this week.
