That was awesome. Your daughter has a wonderful voice and is very talented. My six-year-old loves that song.

We went to Chincoteague Virginia this weekend for the Pony swim. Our campground that we have a place in has a pool. Of course I had just read this thread before I left. I took my daughter to the pool and I thought to myself, " I wonder if I could just sneak in here tonight and add a couple...

Sorry :oops: On and off with the solar cover everyday seems to be working the best. It is on for the morning sun that the pool gets so I save a little chlorine that way. Left it off a couple days and geez the water got cold fast. So I do make sure it gets put back on after we are done for...

Hey Chad, I feel rude not having replied.... Sorry :cry: Sounds like a great place to live. I actually saw myself a hunting widow as soon as I read your post. LOL Don't know if I could handle those winters though. I am thinking more south these days. Kind of leaning towards South...

Alli, I also have an Intex pool and I love my pool. I spray my filter at least every other day but because I am a freak about my pool it is usually every day. Another thing you can do if you have the side scimmer is use a nylon as a skimmer sock. You have tree frogs and my problem is my...

Thanks for the replies. Hey Reindeerboy.. How do you like ND we are looking to move and 60 at night sounds great. I hate running the air conditioner and also my BGE bill. LOL Believe it or not we get lots of humidity. Also wind from being on the water. I dont reel the cover up I just...

Hello Everyone, I have a question about using my solar cover. Since my pool is in the sun quite a bit I of course lose lots of chlorine during the day. My water is nice and warm and I don't really want to put the solar cover on. But I am thinking it will stop the sun from eating so much...

Thank you. I have forwarded those links to her to check out. Your pond is very nice. Right now I think I will stick to my pool. At least I can swim in it. LOL

Where there is a will there is a way. I have an Intex 18 x4 . 1500gph filter. Mine came with a vacuum setup but I lost some pieces. Well anyway I take the vacuum hose and I slip in a nylon, pull about 3 inches out and then connect it to the vacuum head that goes on the bottom of the pool...

With all the knowledge going round here I was wondering if any of you do fish ponds. My friend in PA is fighting her pond this year with algae and I thought maybe there could be some help for her here. If not any suggestions??

From one Youtube fan to another.... thanks. LOL I actually love that movie. Cause you know all us Baltimore ppl walk up and down the streets of the city singing. :punkrock:

Thanks for the welcome comments. The pool is my thing. If its doesn't look good I'm not happy. Of course you know that old saying. If Paula ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. (modified for my personal use of course) LOL Thanks again and I'll be asking questions in the appropriate sections I'm...

Hello everyone!! My name is Paula and I have been lurking for about a week now and decided to join yesterday. My husband, 3 kids and I live in Baltimore and we have an Intex 18' x 4'. Started out the season with PUCKS :hammer: I know, I know but I am learning. The pool calc is great and I...
