Ran full set of tests this morning. All is perfect. Supposed to get rain today... waiting to see if we do get any. If not I need to add water.

View from my pool as I float. I love the Texas sky!!

Weather is beautiful. Family swam and barbecued outside.

 

[kellyfair]

Well, we had plenty of thunder but not a drop of rain. So I added water to the pool.

Bought 15 bags of white beach pebble to go around pool. Looks good, but I need a lot more so I ordered the rest to be delivered. Laid edging and ground cloth all the way around, and finally hung up my glass wind chimes I got in Gatlinburg!

Pool was 92 degrees today! Hope for some rain to cool it down a bit!

Adjusted the chlorine and swam all day!

First day to use the new pool!!! Yippee! I swept all the loose gravel/concrete bits up from around the pool. Vacuumed the pool, scrubbed "tile" line to remove dirt and concrete remnants, emptied skimmers, pumped out sump pit and then floated on my raft! Felt good to have a pool again!

 

[ctrav]

You were a busy body for sure...any pics?

Congrats on the new pool...feels good doesn't it! Have you thought about hair nets in the skimmer baskets? Catches an awful lot of debris...

There is a thread in Under Construction of my Brownsburg IN pool Build. Lots of photos there.

I have not used hair nets. I have used skimmer socks in my past pools. I will look for a package of hairnets next time I’m out. We have a lot of Cottonwood trees “snowing” right now.

This is the pool cover going on yesterday.

 

[ctrav]

Skimmer socks are are thicker I believe but have not used them. I use these and they work great...

Did some quick tests as we had 8 people in the pool yesterday. All was good and a good time was had by all.

 

[ctrav]

Good times are always good!

 

[AndyPTx]

I agree, ctrav!! A definite factor in my wanting to figure how to stay here (that and the accompanying :sun.
Oh - and the wonderful wife I found here of course.
But Yes. Texas skies. The 'big blue skies' of the country songs.
Little to beat floating and staring in between dozing.

Brentr as I scrolled thru quick I thought your pic was a layout of testing fluids for chem checks.

Great as chem checks are - I prefer THAT spread of fluids!

 

[kellyfair]

This.

Oh, I did remember to charge the Go Pro’s battery. Look, you can see Thermoducky! LOL.
