    Thank you on the pool compliment, we LOVE our pool.

    BTW, the solar heating is a must and not optional here in NWMN or there would be a lot of pool maintc and very little pool use (unless you are very brave) Right now we are holding right around 84-87 degrees. Our nights have been as cool as 46 degrees - just last night - but the days have all been mid 70s to low 80s so we feel we are getting good use of the panels. We wouldn't get anywhere with them without the solar cover to hold it all in during these cool nights!

    Where in NWMN are you ? I went to jr college in Fergus Falls and Wahpeton ND. I can understand the need for a heater.

    We are way up north and a bit east, between Grand Forks and the Canadian Border...the big joke is that we are so cold up here most of the time, our college students (UND) start sunbathing when it hits 35 degrees (some of them do at 45 - no lie!) We had 49 degrees yesterday morning and 84 for the daily high. Go figure! Our season are winter, melting, getting ready for winter and as good as winter....

    No, No, NO! We HATE to see anyone actually ENJOYING their pool, with nice clear water.....especially the kids playing.

    JUST KIDDING!!

    This is the reason we do this--so you and your kids can have FUN and cool down!

    My pool is for me, my wife, my kids, their friends, our friends, our family, etc. I even have a little one who's turning into quite the water bug! Thank goodness for the Pampers Splashers!!!!
