One of the neighbors came down through screaming out the car window, "I LOVE YOUR POOL AND WANNA SWIM NEXT YEAR!" I screamed back, "I LOVE MY POOL AND CAN'T WAIT TO SWIM NEXT YEAR TOO!"

The big reveal will happen tomorrow! I will go get the Princess and blind fold her and have Pappy walk her down in while I video it and then I'll upload it so you all can watch everything become worth it. She was worth it all. It's hers! I told her it's done. She is very excited to see it!
in the planning stages IS IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR.
Just want to thank everyone for all the support you give myself and this community. You guys are not just great friends. I consider all of you an extension of my family. You've all went above and beyond for me and my family and I'll always be forever grateful.
Today is the big reveal day. I'm so ready to show my granddaughter what I built her! I'm also so ready for next summer so we can enjoy it! We are going to make new memories and spend so much time together and have so much fun!!!! I have to tell you guys that as I watched the guys fight to get that slide together n finally bolt it to the concrete, I had to walk away because I teared up a bit. Not only because of the slide but the whole pool build, being done, being able to do it, getting her back after a long separation of covid, being able to swim again after losing everything, having this place... I dont want for much but this pool means a lot to her and I. I taught her how to swim and put her in water at a very young age and we loved swimming so much.
She has not been here at all since the hole was dug. I did send her a couple pics but she hasn't seen it for the last week or so. She begged me for a pic n I told her it's a surprise! I can't wait to upload it for you guys to see!
You guys are awesome.

Like anything else, it takes a while to just be normal. Yours will probably take even longer as you didn’t use it. So fast forward a month and you’ll be getting ready for work on a random day and glance out there with it the furthest thought from your mind……….
‘Wait !!!! Hold up. Did I ? ……….. *Glances at pool*. ‘Adult Word’ YEAH I DID !!!!!’
That day is gonna start off good.
And then 9 days later, 2 more days later, etc, etc, etc.
Over. The. Moon. Happy. For. You.

That's so awesome!
Our build finished at the end of January. My knuckleheads jumped in late February/early March when the water was only 48 degrees!

She was in the pool for at least 40 minutes. She kept asking me to get in. I said NO WAY!That's so awesome!
