No Pool? No Problem!
In River Vale, long-time friends get creative to help their kids cool off.
When the temperature is as hot as it’s been the past few weeks, you may think the only way to be both outside and comfortable is to go for a dip in a pool. But, as Ariella Burnett discovered, it’s not the only way. She and her kids headed over to the backyard of long-time friends Jess and John D’Eredita in River Vale, as their town doesn’t have a municipal pool. “Jess and I met 20 years ago while working at I Can’t Believe It’s Yogurt in Westwood, and we have been best friends ever since,” says Burnett. While the kids cooled off from the 90-degree heat in an inflatable water slide, kiddie pool and water table, the adults had a chance to chat and catch up. “John threw some burgers and hot dogs on the grill,” says Burnett. “We had such a nice time.”
