The ban on flip flops lasted all of one day in the Almeida household. G. purchased a new pair yesterday after demonstrating a new strategy for carrying flip flops across a rushing river. She was certain wearing the flip flops on her wrists like bracelets, instead of on her feet, would solve the problem. There was also a promise of no crying if the plan didn't work.

I figured it was worth the $1 risk for another pair.

Now the question is - will the swimming temps return to Maine again this summer?
