sounds like it was a wonderful day for you..that's what pools are about..the center of companionship and fun..this is the first year that i've treated my pool like it isn't just a hassle and money sinkhole..ironically enough, i've spent about 3K this summer to get it to the point where it will be hassle free, more efficient, etc etc. it's also the first year where when i see people in it, like my wife and one of her best friend's who drove into town to spend the day with her, that i smile and just enjoy the luxury of being able to have a swimming pool. does a heart good..just had to get head out of it and my heart into it
