    Name your Top 5 inventions of all time

    Blantons of course when I can find it. Weller next if I can find that. But my everyday that I can typically find is Four Roses Single Barrell or Buffalo Trace. Ryes would be Whistle Pig for a treat but everyday Sagamore Spirits or Michters

    Resort Pool... Gross.

    Just spent a week at the Dolphin Resort at WDW. As soon as my grandkids saw the pool they said the water wasn’t as clear as mine and believe me it wasn’t. Yep TFP pool snobs!

    Where are you in Ohio? If close to Canfield you are welcome to stop by and take a look. This is all I have. I just designed it on a piece of paper.

    Those with borderless vinyl liners…

    My vinyl liner with a border is 4 years old and the fading below the waterline is noticeable. When filled to the waterline you cannot notice. And I have followed TFP protocol since the first year. Someone also told me since I have an auto cover that there is virtually no fading above the...

    Last Swim

    Well we did get one more swim in today! Heated the pool to 84 degrees and the temperature got into the upper 70’s. That is my grand daughter and son in law. This will be it though. Gonna cool down next week then I close in early October to avoid the leaves. But today was a blast!

    Last Swim

    I live in Ohio and last year we were swimming the last week of September in 80 degree weather. I remember because I close my pool the first week of October and I couldn’t get my water temp to 60. I think your climate is about the same as ours. Be careful about closing too early. Ideally you...

    Poolside Bathroom: Standalone or Add-on to House?

    I would not put in a pool without a bathroom outside. Surprise expense for me was the ditch we needed to hook into the sewage line. Sewage line was 18 feet deep. Quite an undertaking for a dig that deep. We put in a bar pavilion area and behind it a bathroom/changing area and storage shed.

    What's your current pool temp?

    My temperature is 80 degrees (ugh). Turned the heater off two weeks ago hoping to cool the water into the 60’s for closing tomorrow. But unseasonably warm days and nights have kept the temps up. Good news is the grandkids have been swimming this week. Was thinking of delaying closing but...

    Ceiling is cedar and back wall is shiplap painted white. Builder built a lot of the bar from left over pieces of wood. This is our third season and no problems so far. There is a bathroom and storage shed behind the bar.

    Outdoor TV...is a true outdoor model necessary?

    65 inch Hisense for 699. I don’t take it in and we get pretty rough winters here. I figured I could buy 5 of these for the price of one outdoor. Works and looks great.
