This was Day 1

Swimming today! [[/URL][/URL]

Thanks! I love knowing I can do this myself. My PG wanted $2500+ for a drain & refill plus opening this year. Instead, I did it all myself. Now I can buy the patio furniture I wanted. :)

*blushing* Thanks Lisa!

Today's view. It is very overcast today, so hard to see the sparkle.. We can see the drain cover in the deep end! It is still cloudy a bit, so we will continue to hit hard today and see where we are tonight. Lost 3.5 ppm last night. Added 96oz to get us back to 18. Fingers crossed that we are...

Cool, Thanks Lisa! We can almost see the bottom of the dive well. I think we may be looking at trying the overnight test in the next few days. Just checked & saw my FC fell to 11.5 from 5:40 this morning (we have been gone all day). Added 2 more jugs per pool math, to bring us to 18. I should...

Here is this morning's view: Getting there….
