How did it turn out? We are about to embark upon the same thing, except we have to get a huge tree limb out first. A tree fell into the pool in during our snow and ice storm this winter, and since we did not have a chain saw, we just gave up until we could get a chain saw. Well, we sawed the tree and half of it fell into the pool. Since the liner had already fallen in, and it has become a giant mosquito breeding ground, and there was already a hole in the liner somewhere, we decided to rent a pump to get the remaining water out of the pool. My husband has just left to drive the 25 miles into San Antonio to rent the pump.

I am assuming we will clean with the bleach solution and refill the pool, after we get the tree limb out. Any other hints?
