As an update to this article, today News8Austin reported the following:
- we've had 22 triple-digit days since May 19th as recorded at Camp Mabry, about 8 miles south of here on MoPac.
- 15 record highs (10 new, 5 tied)
- highest: 103 on June 18th
To escape the heat, we hit the pool. On Saturday we drove out to Dripping Springs for a pool party hosted by one of Drew's co-workers. It was a relatively hot day, I'm sure hitting triple digits at some point. Jasper had a blast in the pool, first hanging out on the "beach" = a wide shelf just one step into the water. From there we could hang out with him with our feet in the water. After lunch we pushed him a little more and got him all the way in the pool. We didn't go under water, but thanks to his exposure at swimming lessons he did great hanging out in the pool with both Drew and me. It was fun to cool off and play with him.
here he is hanging out on the beach getting sprayed with water by Don's daughter Katy.
Jasper quickly became fond of Katy. She is a sweet girl who was patient to play with him. Here she's showing him how to shoot water out of this toy.
Drew's ducking out of the way because Jasper is spraying him with water!
Daddy and Jasper hanging out at the pool. Jasper was very intrigued by the fountain, but on closer inspection he got a little scared of it.
