Thank you for the replys. DH says the roof of the present garage may not be the best place as its an odd shapped roof that goes to a point, not like a regular garage. This garage is over 60 years old. If it goes up there it will have to be shorter than 20feet long. I will do my research and see what I can find. I really want a bigger "real" pool next year. But with DS graduating from hs next year, & that might be the time to move out of this town and into the country where my husband really wants to live. I'm ready to have the real pool just dont want to put it up this year to move next year. And I think the solar panels can go with us. I have a great solar cover, I just got it. Didn't have it last year, maybe it will help some.. Thanks, Kim
