Kids these days. When I was young, my idea of “social networking” was meeting my friends down at the Dairy Queen without a worry in the world. Years later when I moved to the homes in Short Hills, NJ I discovered the town pool. As a young Mom with small kiddies, that was how I met so many of my new friends – many of whom I’m still close with today! A lot of things may have changed since then, but some things will never change- like meeting friends at the town pool.
This summer, leave your homes in Short Hills, NJ and explore your inner child! Spend sometime getting to know our local pool or Par 3 Golf Course! It is a beautiful way to spend the day – and you might even find you forget about your handheld technology for a few hours! Well…it’s a nice thought anyway!
