Farewell to summer

This is how I spent the last day of August....drinking mimosas with several friends at the pool.



Since I was the one taking pictures, I turned the phone around and got a still-wet selfie.
Onward to September!

Much the same here. It was very hot, and the pool was our only respite.

Yael said...

Here, too, very hot, without a pool, with the air conditioner in the house all day.

Frances said...

Much cooler here in SE England thank goodness. That pool looks very enticing ! What are Mimosas? Not heard of that as a drink.

I usually hate the end of summer but not this year. It was way too hot for most of it. It looks like you celebrated it in a fun way. How nice to see your lovely face.

Happy September and Labor Day.

I was going to suggest skinny dipping next time you are at the pool with the other girls but I thought better about making such a remark as it might be seen as lecherous.

Colette said...

The perfect end to the summer.

Jennifer said...

Champagne and orange juice!

Steve Reed said...

Mimosas and a pool -- now that's a perfect combination!

Jennifer said...

The last time I went skinny dipping I was 17 years old!

Jennifer said...

You would have loved it, Anne Marie! We're a bunch of liberal Trump haters!

Jennifer said...

It was really, really nice.

Jennifer said...

Yes! Nothing like a little champagne to turn a small party into a real celebration!

Jennifer said...

It wasn't terribly hot here yesterday, but it was plenty warm enough for the pool.

Jennifer said...

I love my friend's pool...we're always welcome to go swimming and we don't have to maintain anything!

Jennifer said...

I like this sweet comment! Thank you!

Jennifer said...

It seems to be headed this way. And now it's a cat 5!

Jennifer said...

I'm looking forward to fall this year. Too much hot weather (and a/c problems) this summer for my taste!

Jennifer said...

Same to you Mitchell!!!

Dave R said...

Glad you enjoyed yourself. Looks like you had a lot of fun!

Michael said...

What a great way to end the summer. The photos are great! I would have loved listening to the anti-Trump talk!

Joanne Noragon said...

And a good time was had by all. How nice.

Frances said...

Oh is that what it is...we call that Buck's Fizz !

I don't know mimosas (only the flowers), but I certainly know about refreshing drinks on a hot summer's day (or evening).
O.K. and I spent the last day of August between his shaded balcony and the village fountain, which is always cold no matter how many weeks of hot weather we've had. The balmy evening saw us sipping G&Ts under a starry sky.
Sunday meant a bike ride into town to have huge ice creams before it was sadly time for me to get the train back home. And now it is September, and already a lot cooler.
