Jesse stood on the float and breathed in the nice fresh air. It was a breezy day, but warm enough for him to still wear a t-shirt and shorts.
"Isn't this wonderful?" he asked his friends, who were still working on detailing the float. "The nice, cool breeze to keep us cool, the wind blowing in our faces as we work. I don't think we could have picked a better day to work on this float than today."
"I do," Greg said. "It's way too cold for my liking."
"But you're already wearing a jacket and jeans! How are you cold?" Jesse asked.
"I don't know! I just am!" Greg said.
"How is it that you can even survive winter if you're cold on a sixty-five degree day?" one of Eric's other friends, Troy, asked.
"I think he's just too used to California, where it's sunny and warm year round," Jesse said, jumping off of the float and helping his friends with some more of the detailing.
"Yeah. That's probably it," Greg said.
"Hey, Jess, how much longer do you think this float will take us?" Troy asked.
"I don't know. I was planning on stopping in about twenty minutes. Why?" Jesse asked.
"I was planning on watching my girlfriend at swim practice. It starts in half an hour," Troy explained. "You two can come along if you want."
"Watching girls swim? No thanks," Greg said.
"Oh, come on, Greggie!" Troy said. "Think about it. We get to see about twenty girls wearing bikinis and bathing suits as they swim gracefully through the water like mermaids. What's not fun about that?"
"Well, when you put it that way, it does sound like a lot of fun. All right, I'm in," Greg said.
"Great!" Troy said. "What about you, Jesse?"
"Sure, why not?" Jesse asked. "It could be fun."
"Awesome!" Troy said.
"All right. Let's get working on this baby and see how far we can get in twenty minutes," Jesse said.
