The new Pool

Well, I don't have a picture yet (this is just a placeholder not my real pool), but the new pool is standing and filling with water as I type this up. I wanted to add this note for a few reasons.

First, I want to thank my friends. Without whom, the pool wouldn't be standing. I mean, this pool comes to us in boxes, like an erector set, with lousey instructions, and the pool walls are heavy...REALLY HEAVY... and without my friends who came over early on the 4th, it would not be standing.

Second, I want to thank my wife's uncle Bill. He recently moved here from LA and he's done a bunch of work in my yard, none the least of which is to level the area where the pool now sits.
THANKS GUYS!!!!
