Mines the same as yours

This is cedar walkway that comes in 8 ft sections. They also have curved 6 ft sections. It is about 17 in wide and about 3/4 in thick with rubber connectors / stringers that go in between. We have a couple of sections here with one of the curved sections at the end. Surrounded by some nice River...

Our water was 87 at 8 pm yesterday, 90 the day before but a morning tstorm dropped the temp with cool rain.

:hammer:

Im with you on this one. Appears to be pretty sophiticated, no duct tape, bungees or twisty-ties involved. :hammer: :hammer:

A perfect day for pools, bbqs and fireworks!

My son just moved to Oregon 2 weeks ago - he is my baby, just graduated from highschool 3 weeks ago. I need to talk or text with him every day to feel OK about him being 1600 miles away. Today, someone stole his cell phone - he had borrowed it to the roommate, someone stole it from her locker...

Our Collie would not even get close to the water - he goes up on the pool deck but IN water, ewwww. He thinks not.

Omg, what a story. What will you name her?

78 degrees at this hour - FINALLY!!!!!!

We briefly hit 70 last week, then the cold front and rain moved in Friday - we are again at 63 :( Oh well, looks to be in the upper 70s/80s for weather this week, I am hoping.

Yep, here is the picture

Well I finished the gazebo canvas top. Whew - what a big job sewing that monster, but it really should hold up well. Heavy tent canvas, gromets placed strategically for drainage, extra velcro attachment straps, double stitched seams, longer side flaps - the entire works sprayed with silicone...

Very nice. I had the same frustration, but only chose to sew my own canvas top for the existing wrought iron frame.

Yucca. Looks tropical, non shedding, winter hardy check the Intl Peace Garden in ND, can get huge, blooms infrequently but when it does it looks really cool, low to no maintenance.

Another very tropical looking item is Yucca - they look similar to the spikey plant, get quite large and I can attest are cold hardy. We have had them here in the Northern Red River Valley in my yard next to the grapevines around our Koi pond for 10 years. We regularly get down around 30 below...

It's very frustrating that you drop a chunk of change on an iron gazebo (not the flimsy cheap ones) and there are no replacement supplies for them. After a big wind shredded the top canvas of our gazebo late last summer, I began to look around, research, contact manufacturers (even those that...

We use a combo of the mosquito dunks in standing water, thermo cell lanterns and a pyrethren fogger an hour before swimming. Use care with fogger drift if you have fish/koi ponds

Are you talking concrete, ceramic or wood? For a single plant/tree/item or a grouping? Makes a difference. You may want to look into building or having something built or check with architectual supply vendors.

Feeling your pain. We just had 4" of snow in the last week. Beat that.

We are at 87 - just creeping into the "too warm" zone for me but I won't complain. I love summer and I love my pool.

Oh you guys SLAY me. Unreasonably cold? 60s? :hammer: Ha. That IS a warm night here. We had lower 40s on Monday morning - the pool temp bounced right back up there with some sunshine. But then our University of North Dakota students believe 30s and sunshine in March is Mother Nature's...

We expect to be home on Sunday as well - leaving for a drive along the north shore of Lake Superior in the morning, but home Sunday and hoping for warm weather. Should be a bunch of family out Sunday to enjoy the pool and watch some great fireworks We had our first 90 degree day today and the...

We have the wasps, hornets and bees. The bees are from the local bee farmer who has has hives 1/4 mile south on our CRP and we need them to pollenate so they can drink all they want, the rest I could give a hoot about spraying dead - but some of them keep trying to make those "mud" nests in the...

Yay I finally got in my pool today - 81 deg water, 83 deg weather. The teenager crew has been in several times but today was my day. YES!!!!!

yay for you guys!!!! I am green with envy. The army of teenagers here have been in a number of times but I wanted to wait until the water was over 80 degrees (today) but I get home and another thunderstorm hits!!! Enjoy that pool, it's just beautiful!!!

Ha - we would rather have to cool down than deal with trying to heat. We have finally reached 80 deg water yesterday! We have had something like 4 days that were not total cloud coverage since the first week of MAY. Rain nearly every day and clouds every day do not make for great heating with...

We require every child under the age of 10, whether they can swim or not, say they have had lessons or not, to wear a marine grade life jacket in our pool and be supervised by an adult - line of sight suprevised. I keep an assortment of the marine life jackets in the pool deck box - no jacket...

One Christmas my MIL asked if she could bake the lutefisk in my oven because hers was full already - UFDA is right, my house stunk for days like a dirty hamster cage

I had never even heard of all of the Scandinavian cultural foods my husbands family and people in Northern MN would eat. I didn't think these would be much different from the meat and potatoes meals most families at - UNTIL I went to a church supper/fund raiser up here shortly after just...
