I just joined earlier this summer, but I love this site. I searched everywhere on the net for a site like this one (no adverts) and could not find one. They all have links back to affiliate accounts and other adverts everywhere. The fact that this site does not allow all of that makes it the...

I had a big American Bulldog back there and he bit my step dad so I had him put to sleep for fear of hurting kids. I originally had 3 pit bulls back there. they were great dogs and real gentle. No one ever came in the yard because they were scared to death of the dogs lol I used to laugh. They...

Well folks, sorry to take so long to reply back again, but I ended up taking down the pool since I am getting ready to move anyhow. However, I did find out what was most of my water issue, I had some local kids here dumping stuff in the pool on me and apparently, it had been going on for a...

Hello everyone. My name is Ray and I am from central Illinois. I am a new pool owner. It is nothing serious. It is a small 12'x39" Intex. I got it for free for my kids so I figured I would give it a shot. Upon further review, I learned that taking care of a pool was not as easy as I once...
