    Having problems posting the picture. I hope to get it worked out soon. I have been reworking the layout with the pool on the diagonal. Not sure how to deal with all the angles in my yard, as I have a rectangle plus triangle shape. Not sure whether to line up shed to the back of house or to pool.

    Thanks and I understand. However, those covers are sooo expensive. Maybe having a small fence might work, my dogs can't jump that high.

    Originally the thought was to put the pool equipment behind the shed in the far corner of the yard. But I am starting to like the idea of putting the gazebo in the back corner as it might make a nice focal point. Another idea, is to get rid of the sunlocust tree and put a cabana/storage area...

    Thanks for the idea, my concern is where to put the shed? We are in the idea stage right now, so nothing is built. Everything is open for change. However, we have a gazebo that we need to find a place for.
