Took them about 6 hrs to excavate the area and install the pool. So far, not including chemicals, my free pool has cost me $2400.

Electrician is coming tomorrow to go over code. I'll do most of the prep work to try and keep the cost down.

Those are the same buggers that I saw out on Canandaigua Lake last Sunday!  Some sob photo shopped a sex toy into a picture of me with a trophy perch and those fellows were in the background. 

They seemed like they were having a good time and didn't really hurt the fishing.

I think those guys left a pair of their boxers hanging as a flag on the "lifeguard" station over the pool area back when I bought my house. Apparently the last owner was a gay nudist. The neighbors told me when you heard the horseshoes start clanking it was time to get in the house. After I moved in all I could picture was a handful of guys at the door ringing the door bell looking for Bob.

Good luck with the pool. I always liked them very relaxing . 

There is certainly something about a nice cool swim that is relaxing, good for the mind and body.   
 

80 plus degree heated pools not my cup o tea.

Temp is up to 72°.  Hazy sun today, was hoping it would get up to around 76° by afternoon.  Solar cover has been on, but don't know how effective they really are. 

Jump in that sum bitch ! It will feel amazing!

That's the plan.  

My first attempt at the extension was a cantilever section off the deck.  That didn’t pan out so well.  A single 4x4 pt post, in the center next to the pool, took care of the problem.   I poured half a bag of dry concrete into the hole below the post.  It has held up very well, going on 7 years now.
