Our first Island Party of the summer season takes place today, with most of the same players who attended last year’s Coquette gathering. This year is way more casual than that, far less fancy, and probably a lot more fun. The dress code is easy-living island wear, which allows for swimsuits and cargo shorts and yes, even crocs. It’s summertime, and there are no rules. Here’s a song to kick it off – an oldie but goodie, revamped by Shaggy.
We say, we say what we want and we say what we need
And we love everybody, but we do as we please
And when the weather is fine
We go fishing, we go fishing in the sea
We’re always happy to live life, that’s our philosophy
This will be a pool party no matter what. That’s a big and bold statement, and a daring promise given that we’ve had over half a year of weekend precipitation, but I don’t make such claims without reason. In the event that the weather turns on us, we have a pool table in the basement for the kids to play billiards, so there will be pool in some form, rain or shine. And that’s the plan for the whole summer, so stop on by…
