Ready To Get Going

This is where the pool is going to go. It's in the side yard, because we really don't have any back yard space. The only thing I don't like is on the other side of that fence is someone's driveway, and then a main road. I want to look into putting up some kind of privacy wall or something, and hope I won't have to hire a San Francisco general contractor to do it.

I really want to get out there and get it started to filling so that by later this afternoon the kids can play in it. When we moved, we left behind so much stuff (not by choice) and my pool supplies were part of that. I had a ladder and a floaty thing for the chlorine, and a skimmer and vacuum. Luckily I know where I can get a skimmer/vacuum package for about $20. The last pool like this we had lasted for quite a few years, and I hope this one lasts just as long, if not longer. The only reason the other pool had to be thrown away was because the bubble part had too many holes, and it wouldn't inflate anymore.

I know we will all enjoy being able to cool off and be outside for the rest of the summer.
