Beautiful yard, hop.
Thanks brother. That's my Hobby and what makes me happy.
Yeah I also did some reading. I'm going to force it to fruit. I'm starting tomorrow.
That's our next 10 Caribbean vacations that we won't be taking now. I did all I could to discourage my wife, but she's wanted a pool since I've known her. Wonder if I can get one of the neighbor's kids to get us drinks while we float around the pool : )
Look nice it will be fun next summer. As long as the neighbors don't have farm animals.

Only way I could justify a pool here is if it had a geodesic dome over it so I could use it more than two months a year.
Nice pool!
Nice pool!
I'm wondering what the gas bill is going to look like the first couple of months she keeps it heated. After that I'm guessing the heater will go unused : )
Pools are a pain in the ass. I just use the small blow up pools for my grandkids. After they get used they get thrown away.
Had a big in ground pool once at another house years ago and I filled the fker in and planted grass
Had an above ground here that was just as big a pain in the ass and tore it down and put a pad for a storage room which I am about to have built.

I remember years ago, Clio pushed a millage so the high school could have an olympic sized pool. They said that not only could the kids use it, but for a small fee, they'd let the public come too. They built it, but built it four feet shy of olympic sized for some reason. It stayed open one (1) year before they paid to backfill it. My township loves to piss away money.
My wife is unconcerned with the pita part of owning a pool. She is confident she can get her husband to do all the cleaning and maintenance, even if he rarely gets in the water himself <sigh>
But the kids will enjoy it and you can get high and watch then have fun

Hell yeah. I have owned a pool. Biggest PITA ever.
I had an above ground, and ended up planting my garden in it for a couple years before I gave it away.
Same with me. I had to take care of it, and rarely got in it.
Yeah that...^^^
I was the one that took care of ours but we couldn't stand the smell. the neighbors had a lot of farm animals. PU nothing like trying to cool off and relax with that fresh manure smell. You know the one you get from s farmer after they fertilize in the spring.
