    1 is done, sent the pics over

    it was full, the rain kept it at the right height, as did all the snow we had this year

    have testing gear for the water, but figured at this point it doesnt matter as i should get all the crap out first

    i have started the draining process, thank you siphon
    am going to call around for water delivery, i have a well and dont want to burn out my pump

    Having water delivered is probably not a bad idea. We run into all kinds of people who have trouble with their pools as a result of filling with well water.

    Here are your pics.

    One caution: do NOT drain if ground surrounding your pool is wet. It looks like you are on level ground, which means water could gather under your liner and lift it, if your drain much from the pool.
