I am so excited! A few dogs went for for a swim already. I haven't done any tests yet, but I am SO pleased at the clarity today. A bunch of worms and a bit dirt. I'll take it! It was a brisk 50 deg here today. Our thermometer broke, so I don't have the temp (and didn'

t look on the pump yet), but it's cooollldddd. But YAY to not looking at a cover!

Day 2. Finally tested today and so pleased! Our heater won't be hooked up for another 2-3 weeks, so April will belong to the dogs for swimming. Thanks again to @kimkats for the hair net recommendation - they worked like a charm last year! But I left them in our shed all winter and the elastics were no longer good. Just ordered a new batch arriving today. Need to grab some salt (but the SWCG isn't on yet), but that's about it for right now.

Sooooooooo incredibly happy and thankful to have found TFP!

 
LOVE it!!! SO glad you shared this wonderful opening! That is what TFP is all about! SWEET!

Glad the hair nets worked for you! They are a MUST if you have dogs or long hair!

Salt=diamond day! Add the salt with the kids can/will get in the pool. It looks like diamonds floating down through the water. Their swimming and playing will help mix it in!

Wait until about 24 hours after you add the salt before you turn on the SWG to make sure it is mixed in good.

Yes! They love salt day :D

Temp is 52 deg! 🥶
 
I'm in Central PA and we'll open ours in a week or two. I am hoping our pool looks as good as yours when we take that cover off. Last year when the prior owner opened it, it was green as green can be so your pool gives me hope! :)
