I had to give up on ours last week, as well. Ran out of wood to keep the fire burning. I'll be putting together a good stock of wood, newspaper, and other assorted burnables for an early opening in the spring. Another overwinter project is amassing enough black tubing to make several solar coils, and have them ready for pool fill day.

What's left of the water in ours, has cooled to below 60*. Not going to put any major part of my body in THAT!!

All I have left to do is scrub and dry the liner, then store it.

All in all, I agree with you Watermom! My pool may be just a shadow of yours, but it sure does feel good to float around in it, especially on a cool late summer evening.

Is it spring yet?
