    Sun sail shade?

    I use/used (lost one from the summer we had last year) the Queen Palms and the house and pergola using paracord along with double/tripled up heavy duty bungee cords. This year may be more over the pool but we really need extra shade on the decking and under the pergola/grill area. Excuse the...

    Big Green Egg or Similar question

    I've been very pleased with my Primo XL and your points are some of the exact same I had as well..... I do not regret this purchase at all and use very frequently.

    What's your current pool temp?

    ours was down to 82 last night just before the bulk of the remains of Hurricane Rosa came thru and dumped over 2" of rain today and overcast weather... the pool is MUCH higher now and I'll check the pool temp shortly. Last night was brisk, the end of swimming season is coming quickly here.

    Shade Sail

    I did an install this year adding some morning/early mid-day shade to the pool and it's using the house and palm trees with rubber bungy cords for the really strong monsoon winds we get. I will be taking them down in Oct. until next year.

    How cold of water will you swim in?

    i can into the upper 70's here, but that starts to really make me reconsider any further swims until spring. Maybe this year I'll do a New Years dip. I get it we're in AZ so our "cold" isn't the same as others.
