Well it may not look like a pool


OK so we finally decide to repair the pool and put in a new liner after 6 years of not using it. So we order the new liner and drains and skimmer and replace all the sand in the filter. Then we take the old liner out fighting the wasps and hornets the whole time, they had the biggest nests built around the entire pool edge behind the liner where it had falling in...Jerry used three cans of wasp and hornet spray trying to kill all of them. He spent the rest of the day running away from the ones he made MAD. So we get the liner out and discover that the walls are all rotten and need to be replaced as well (we shouldn't have been that surprised they were after all 20 years old). So we now have a pool skelton around a very large sand box. The dog loves to plop down in the cool sand after chasing around the yard like a maniac. Our goal is to have the plumbing done and ready for the new walls and liner this weekend when Serena and Billy are here to help. We spent an entire week weeding the terrace, notice how nice it is...probably won't be that way for long....
