First I have to say I LOVE THIS SITE! It has been SO helpful and contains a wealth of information. I have an Intex 18x9x48 pool I bought at Costo, then bought an Intex Krystal Clear Saltwater System, and the Baracuda Ranger Automatic Above-Ground Pool Cleaner, and they have worked fantastic! It truly has been trouble free. I live in Southern Oregon where it snows in the winter.
My questions:
The pool came with a cover, but I was going to buy a better one but cannot find ANYTHING for this size of pool. Any suggestions?
I'm guessing I should buy a pillow, but not sure what size/kind?
I am also unclear on what I need to add to the water before closing; do you close a salt water pool the same as a chlorine pool? I was thinking of getting this kit (mostly because it appears to have everything I will need? Or not?) http://www.doheny.com/poolsupplies/Winter-Closing-Master-Kit-3302.html
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me with any of my questions!

(I am also extremely jealous of those of you that live where you can use your pool year round; I would love nothing better than that!)
