82 no solar yet. Been swimming for a month, but my wife will wait for 86.
Just started opening pool today.... 60 brrrrrrrr.
My youngest (11) got in last week when the water was a balmy 58... Both girls are swimming today at a whopping 66. I think I'll wait for 75 at least...
Now at 75! Solar panels and solar cover and NO CLOUDS!
I might get in and fix two patches that came half-off over this rough winter. Had to do a LOT of repairs...
Re-set and use fresh screws in every piece of coping.
Re-set and replace two coping corners
Re-seat the liner virtually ALL the way around. Used a hair dryer for most of it but the last three inches required a heat gun and a screw driver.
Replaced 3 solar panels and all their hoses.
Repair broken union nut on SWCG.
I still have to replace ALL the clamps on the winter cover and patch a hole in it.
And all this is in addition to the USUAL spring startup.
Up to 68 today....whoo hoo!Quote:

68..The boys are fine in it. Okay for me once I get over the initial shock. My wife is patiently waiting for Memorial weekend.
That's just goes to show ya that boys aren't always the brightest crayons in the box! :p I should know......... I have three boys myself! :)Quote:
