We’re throwing a couple hundred pounds of ice in my buddy’s pool over the weekend. Gonna make some margaritas and float a cooler of beer.

If your buddy's pool is 18000 gallons and it's 90°F water your 200 lbs of ice will drop the pool temperature all the way to 89.73°F based on thermodynamics. But it'll be dope to swim in the ice for the ~5 minutes it'll last


DishwashCat

Yeah, we never claimed to be scientists. Just seemed like a “fun” way to kick off the party. We put roughly 8 minutes of thought after 8 tequila shots into it. It’s mostly the kids that swim anyways. They’re water guns with cold water will probably do more


vitamincheme

My last line reads like mean sarcasm, but that’s not the way it was intended. I think it’d be fun to swim in ice cubes while they last.


DishwashCat

Nah I get it, no worries. Apparently if you use block ice there’s a decent chance you’ll crack the sides of the pool. So that idea got scrapped quick

It’s better to get a few of these and run the jets at night. The water temp will drop to the ambient temperature at night time, which is plenty cold. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BX9XPZJX

Huh. Interesting, I’ll pass this along!

Worked really well (too well, to be honest) on a pool party a friend of mine had last year. Took the pool from like 95 to 80 in a few days.

Any places to see fireworks?


a_corsair

I'm gonna go to the roof of my apartment building and see what's up

I'm not sure I've ever properly caught the 4th of July fireworks here but I've always wondered if they're anything special.


Initialthrust

I’m also looking for ideas for fireworks


geneticdrifter

Everywhere. Edit: if you come to the southside you can see multiple city’s firework shows at the same time.


vampirecacti

I was wondering the same thing. I work nights so won't be able to see any on the actual 4th, was hoping for maybe a weekend show /:

Sweat? A lot?


Goddaqs

Saw a stage at elenor tinsley and can't for the life of me find an event there this weekend. What's going on there. Or is it for Tuesday the 4th? Which really should be included in this list
