    Yeah man!
    Sorry about your back. I went soles up a couple days before New Year's on some ice on our back deck, and that earned me a trip in an ambulance on New Year's Eve when I couldn't stand. I feel your pain.

    Really curious about your 'corrected' temperature. I opened over the course of the past week and by yesterday the pool was spotless, crystal clear and 65 degrees. Enough that my 5.5 year old daughter put her suit on and splashed around on the steps. This is all natural heating from the sun, nothing else. Haven't even broken out the solar blanket yet. And we're a couple hundred miles north and at exactly 1000' elevation (you guys in the Rockies just stop the snickering, OK?).

    It's a handy little gadget you point at something from pool water to a volcanic steam vent and measure the temp. 24 hours after my boy read 71, I read 51....I'm right, not him--I know what 50 deg water feels like!

    (used it on the Big Island on a volcano tour).
