Hi all - not sure if this is the right section for this post . . .
Thrilled to be back in the swim this year - didn't open the pool last summer. As I was vacuuming on Sunday after opening on Sat, I was musing on the prospect of some trips this summer that will keep me from my appointed pool tasks. I then got nervous as I really have no one that I trust to properly BBB my pool while we are away. After years of BBBing, my pool store guy knows not to hawk his wares - he refers to me as The Chemist. I'd be happy to pay a pool service to keep things in check, except I know from first hand experience they'll foul things up. Ten days away for 3 weeks of back-peddling is a bear.
Has anyone out there ever thought of putting together a pay it forward style BBB pool sitting network by geo area? We live in the lower Hudson Valley of NY in Orange county - if there are others out there who feel the same, I'd love to connect.
Just a thought!
Cheers
