    Did you think about getting a fiberglass pool? They come in small sizes, and go in very quickly. The cost may be too
    high though - but it may be something to look into. They are very easy to care for and look beautiful.

    We did check on a fiberglass pool. They wanted way to much in this area. There is only 1 pool company here that has fiberglass pools and I wouldn't let them build a dog house! They have a very bad rep! And the others are to far away to give us a good price.

    Thanks for your responce.

    Cool Re: Wanting a new pool.

    I've worked for companies that sell AG pools, but not install them, and companies that don't sell them, but refer installers, and a company that sold and installed them. I would imagine that someone in your area does AG installations. Talk to the various pool companies in your area and one of the IG dudes should know someone that can do it for you.

    Have you considered the rectangular AG pools? The Splash pools, while pricey, are a snap to install and come in all sizes. The hard part is getting a level surface but that's it. You can have a deck built around it.

    Or there are the FantaSea pools--look like the old redwood pools, deck and all, but you'll need it installed. I have a FantaSea built into my deck. They are solar-heated as well.
