Whenever pooltoys hit the pool - you know the kind - inspiration and amazement ensue, regardless of age. The questions usually are "who makes these/where did you get them?", "how much do they cost?" and "may I (or my kids) use them?" Not necessarily in that order.

I may be full of myself (well, that or full of hot air), but when one mother gave us a bottle of white wine after we let her kids play on the toys for awhile in the pool... it really dawned on me how much such a quaint thing - pooltoys in the pool (those inspired by or created by furries) - would have an effect. From all this, I feel better about what I'm doing, and will strive to continue to do so. :)
