Well, the pool is up!!!!! I can't wait til you all come by for a glass of iced tea and a smoke to help break it in....J/k. I had some problems with the shipping and getting the parts here for the build as if you couldn't tell by the long delay in posting...
Got a question....I am filling with tap water... We live in the country so brown water isn't new. Will the water clear when it is pumped through the sand filter? I know we had a cartridge filter on a smaller pool and it did after a couple of days. Right now the pool is about a foot deep and yellowish brown.
I am also looking at what to do for the landscaping around the pool. Any ideas would be great....Thanks for your encouragement!
