Opening the pool

Dad took the cover off the pool yesterday and the water was a very dark emerald green. Not to worry though as in a few days it will be a nice turquoise blue. Dad wouldn't let us within the pool gate while he was working on it because, over the winter when the heavy cover was on, Calvin would bound across it, and Dad was worried that he would think it was still on and go splash! into the emerald green murkiness. Nobody wants to go in that yucky water after him and nobody wants a green Westie! I think that bounding across the cover was Calvin's way of saying that he could walk on water! Once the pool is it's normal color Dad will let us dogs back in and we can resume our Westie races where we chase each other around the outside of the pool. For some reason the family thinks this is hilearous. It's great exercise for us Westies though. See ya, Teddy. p.s. here is a picture of me on the patio last summer.
