Hot Weather Is Around The Next Corner!!!!






We are still working off our "To Do List"! It is pretty long. Last month the new air conditioner, this month the pool. We had a pool company come in Friday and swap out the sand in our pool filter for a product called Zeobest. It is supposed to be a much better product and will keep the pool cleaner. When Phil got home yesterday, he started draining the pool into the water run off drain in the water retention park behind us. The guy that did the filter work left the pool water quite a mess and didn't back wash the pool where he was supposed to, so Phil had a real mess! We turned the pump off when we went to bed and then turned it back on this morning. It finally finished draining the 12,000 gal sometime around 2pm. Phil got in there before it was totally drained to start his acid/chlorine wash and his crack repairs. This should be finished sometime tomorrow and then he will start filling it back up. It will probably take twice as long to fill than it did to drain. This is only the second time the pool has been drained in ten years. For those that don't have pools, this is not a yearly maintenance job! Thank goodness for that! While Phil was working his butt off, I slipped out and had coffee with Sandy @ the coffee shop. When I got there, my "barista" said that Missy had been in earlier for her coffee! When Dad and Mom are here in a few weeks, we will be starting most every morning there! Whoopie!! Looking forward to it!!!! Hey Dad and Mom, don't forget your bathing suits!!!!!!!!
