Good morning, Debby.Good morning everyone!
Janie, I like your egret picture (such pretty birds)!
Mark & Bob, we've been getting a lot of rain and I'd share some with you if I could (reminds me of trying to share snow this past winter )
DH is taking off work early today. We're driving to Panama City (about 43 miles drive) to check out some home improvement stuff. This
a big kitchen space but very little cabinetry, not near enough to unpack all our cooking stuff.
I hope you have a fun day & find some great storage solutions. I'll bet your enjoying having the hubby home at night.
Good afternoon, Mad. The kids have tried for years to get us to put in a pool out here.Good morning all
Exactly. I am not a fan of the built-in pools. My parents had it built in 1996, took good care of it but, when we took over the house , the pool (23 years) pump went out, the pool light filled up with water and needed to be re-wired and fixed, the plaster needed to be completely redone....thousands of dollars. I didn't have to pay for it but I know my mom spent a fortune and she wasn't necessarily financially ready for the expense. With all that stress, I don't see the benefit. I'd rather get the stand up pools that you can take apart if you didn't want it anymore.
Green algae isn't usually toxic but the last few years we were told it's a different type that is toxic but the warm weather causes it.
The pandemic didn't help either. During the 2020 lock down, something happened the main company that sells chlorine tablets, got damaged somehow (I forgot the story) so then the price of chlorine tablets skyrocketed.
Husband say absolutely not, he'll never have another one. He doesn't want the maintenance and expense.
Two of our kids have pools, and both have had some maintenance headaches.
Considering the droughts we keep having, I don't think anyone should consider an in ground pool now.
