WHIPPED CREAM in pool CLOUDY problem from the DAIRY and OIL

[funkymut]

Hi Aylad, Oh, thanks for reading and answering and reading between the lines of my post questions and ignorance. I think I will refill because the amount of electric and personal energy and time it is costing me more in the long run. I do not have well water or stream either. Ugg, my husband is going to kill me. This $300 pool has cost us $200 in labor for trees to be cut down only to find out the neighbors trees cover the pools sunlight and leveling off the ground $200 and sand delivered $125 only to find out the sunny area and low end of the yard is on the other side of the yard and chemicals, and we have'nt gotten the water bill for the first 5000 gallons, now another! Yikes! Oh well lessons learned and a story to pass down to the grand kids someday I guess. lol

Having a pool is a learning experience, that's for sure!

The good news is that once you refill it, if you start it off right (no pool store goop!), then it gets much cheaper and easier from here--as long as you enforce showers after the next whipped-cream fight!!

This $300 pool has cost ...

Out first donut pool cost $70.00 on sale at a major national toy store and included filter, ladder, and groundcloth. I thought "What a great deal! No problem". This "gateway" pool has led to greater and greater expenditures for bigger and better pools. It snared us like a schoolyard pusher. Not really. The pools we've had the last several years have brought much happiness to our family and friends and what I've learned here has kept us clean and safe.
