CH question / problem?

[dmarsh70]

Thanks!
Just bring towels - i'll have the steaks, beer, and vodka

The pool is coming along. The PH is already stabilizing. The pool builder said several weeks but it stayed at 7.1 all night. My kids swam ALL DAY and it was 7.4. BUT I brought it back down to 7.0 just to make the pool guy happy.

Still running the pump 24/7 - but I am thinking after saturday i'll start programming.

So far so good. COULD NOT have done it without you all.

What was funny was that my landscaping guy was over and we got to talking about pool maintenance. He gets black algae, green algae. But not alot. He NEVER tests! I was SHOCKED (the verb ) and he said he doesnt even own a test kit and goes to the local store to get the results and THEY tell him exactly what to do.

Then invited me over to show ME how he maintains a pool....

Wow - maybe i'm not such a newbie any more

Nope, you're not a newbie anymore.

We'll need a location for the party. Some of us might want to carpool it. Can I bring the dogs?

Saint Augustine, FL.

Not a huge fan of dogs, but i'll make an exception. After the party we'll go down to Disney and ride Soarin' - my favorite ride

Sounds like a fun party!

Not if you're cookin' steaks and have beer and vodka! (I like mine well done--no raw meat for me!)


What's wrong with dogs???? (I have two, both Belgians--I can make a LIST of things wrong with them! Ask Watermom about HER two and mud!)

[Watermom]

What? My two sweet little mud-covered golden retriever girls?? They are SO sweet but right now, also SO dirty. Like so many other people living in these WV mountains, I have foundation issues. The past two weeks a backhoe and a team of construction workers have been digging up my yard to fix things and as a result, we have mud everywhere. My dogs have had a field day and needless to say, as soon as this is all finished (probably next Wednesday), those little girls are gonna get a much needed bath! I guess I could just throw them in my pool NOT!!

Let me guess: Those two little "flowers" are living OUTSIDE!!!!

[Watermom]

Who said you were only a pretty face! Smart, too! No wonder your wife keeps you around!

I like dogs just not in my yard
