Lori & Bob's New Pool






About one month ago, the Good's began dismantling their old round swimming pool. Bob rearranged the dirt and several large tree trunks, hauled in sand and they started shaping the foundation for a large pool that would have an 8 foot hole at one end. Sound easy? Well take a look!!!! Carefully they stationed the side frames, then the sides, started with a huge rubber liner and frantically tried to work out the wrinkles. Now it was time to start filling the 24,000 gallon pool. . .up to about 3 inches. . .this held the liner in place while they struggled to reposition it without wrinkles. . .a monumental job!!! With lots of thought and a little luck, it worked and the filling process smoothed out most of the wrinkles!!! Even the experts couldn't believe they had accomplished this difficult task without professional help. The dealer said even the pro's have trouble with these large liners! With the pool full and the salt water filtering system going full blast, you can hardly see the water with all the kids in it! The deck is nearly complete, then a fence will go around to keep the animals out as well as the little kids! And with the next few days predicted to be at least 100 degrees, it will be well used! Come visit and try it out. Adam & Amanda will even furnish towels!
