What would you do?

I would have stayed in, if you didn't see it, you wouldn't have known - just like eating restaurant food Ha, your chlorine demand would have shown you what to do. Phantom Andy, are you a writer? You described the scene so well, I felt like I was there

Yeah - I keep my CL in range based on the best guess CYA chart. I was curious what others would think for just the reason you stated. 'If you didn't see it. . .'

I figure it's like this: I use my pool for a few hours a day (hopefully) and the birds and other wild life are around when I'm not. I know they hit the pool from time to time, and that's why I keep my CL up in the middle of the recommended range. I've seen the dive bombers, turtles, moles, chipmunks, crawdads, and even rabbits all make various uses for our pool. We are in an subdivision in a small town with woods in the back of the property. My favorite has been the turtle. It's become an annual ritual, one ends up in the pool either the day we open, or shortly therafter every year. This year the same turtle has been in twice for a swim.

Nope - not a writer - I actually work for a community college in a middle management role. My background is Information Technology/Telecommunications/Network Security, but I've always held my own when it comes to writing. I think it's genetic: My Brother is a writer for the Wall Street Journal and the Dow Jones News Service, and my sister is an English/Journalism teacher at a high school.

I don't know where we got it - raise by a wonderful stay at home mom, and a dad who's an engineer. Must have been them Tennessee Schools where we grew up, hehehe.
