In direct violation of the “No glassware in pool area” rule, I give you this photo. It’s Monday morning, and I’d rather be there than here. The Scout took this on his last job. I don’t know the owners of this lovely pool, but I’m available to housesit anytime.
UPDATE: The drink is mango juice with fresh squeezed lime. (I’m sure vodka could be added to that combo–let’s call it the Miss Havisham). The house is a Neutra in Arcadia. That’s right, Arcadia has a Neutra.
My powerful observation skills tell me that’s a spearmint iced tea. That drink is always welcome poolside.
It’s going up to 100 (plus humidity) here today. Sure could use that.

Scout took this photo, Boo Radley was not available for comment.
The Scout has a website! It is too cool for school.
No, I’ll have to respectfully disagree with Rhea. That drink is a pink grapefruit vodka…uh pink greyhound. I’d very much like to have an accident with that.

I’d gladly have a Miss Havisham!

Arcadia actually has a number of excellent Mid-Century Modern homes. Throughout Southern California, many quality architectural environments are concealed behind hedges and unassuming facades of private suburban homes. Too bad there are so few public spaces of similar quality.
