Casey, let me say, welcome to the late night TFP experience. Since I didn't see this post from old I guess I need to get on the stick!!
I agree that I would love to know if this pool went forward too. I simply can't imagine how one would have to have their ducks lined up inorder to have a good, successful build. I have noticed that a good portion of folks from north Texas all the way to DFW have pools.....just not "that" big of pools.
