Photo Challenge - Keeping Cool

A little dirt doesn't make a bite of ice taste any less refreshing.

First a finger, then a toe, then,,,oops I'm in trouble,,,oh well, might as well,,,,

I took this shot and the one below in August 3 years ago. The water hose throw over a low tree limb made a delightfully cool shower.


Miz Judy at A Road to Here is our hostess for this photo challenge. Y'all be sure to thank her and go over to the photo challenge blog and click the participants listed in the comments to see all the wonderful work!

Hi Brenda,

I feel like I wanted to join the little girl playing with mud, and then doused with water over a hose, that will surely make me feel cool, like that little cute girl.

These are great! I always say, "The one who comes home the dirtiest had the most fun." A spray from the hose is a great way to clean up on a hot day.

Great "cooling off" shots...the tree shower is a good idea! At least the kids make it look enjoyable!

Hi Brenda, saw you over at Donna's and just had to come over and say hello. I thought you might be a former blogger that disappeared a few months ago, but I wasn't disappointed...your photos are lovely! Darling kids...and a hose over a tree limb is sometimes much more fun that the largest pool you can find!

Great pictures! I never thought of doing that with a hose when I was a kid. Pretty brilliant. And the kids are gorgeous as always!
