    Thanks for your response & suggestions! As for the temporary pool....that idea had crossed my mind too! One catch, property slopes no place level enough to set another pool without digging ground. I must admit after reading so many horror stories of AGP collapsing I'm paranoid as heck mine...

    sloping ground was level by endloader, several tons of sand base was leveled, topped with a foam type material used to cushion pool liner. I've saw so many of the blue metal Intex models pools setup in my area and its unbelievable how "katy woped" out of level... it amazing they haven't collapsed.
