When we lived in our last house in Nashville, we had an
in-ground pool. When we bought the house, it had been unoccupied for a couple
of years, and there were dead animals floating in the pool!!
But after a lot of
work by a handyman that we hired, it wasn’t too bad!

When we moved to Kansas,
the pool was probably the hardest thing for Randy to leave.
So, he has wanted a pool ever since. The area that we live
in now is very rocky and it isn’t cost-effective to have an in-ground pool. But
with Randy’s neuropathy, we decided that even a small above-ground one was
worth the effort. So, he has been working (after his day job) for the past
couple of weeks on getting one in our back yard. Here’s a play-by-play through
pictures:
We had our kids that live in Utah and their families over
for Memorial Day and we had a barbeque with swimming. It was wonderful.
Actually, I think the handyman did very little work on the pool. I think he removed the 2 X 6s and wire protecting it from kids falling into it and drained it into the street with a roof pump and I did most, if not all of the repainting of the surfaces and got the pump working.
