We are half way there. Pouring the coping, pool shed foundation and deck this week!

Didn't think about the pipes in concrete. Thanks! Yes, I live on top of a big hill in Nebraska and it can get very windy...another reason for the shed. I plan to use the same siding and shingles as the house to make it match. I've been looking at some of those Pool Float racks, but...
