Tracy is my my common law wife of 28 years, and this is her house and pool too. Sorry I forgot to include that for you but didn't think you or anyone else would get hurt not knowing who she is. I'm very sorry I upset you so much. Please please please forgive me. I promise I will be more careful and never hurt your feelings again. Please please please don't hurt me.

Yikes, not me. I have some kind of deep fear of spiders. I'll coax them out if I can but if I see one coming right for me, I'll stand by ground.

Are you building yours or paying someone?

I love to swim and am looking forward to swimming as late into the year as possible before it gets too cold. I need the excersize too as my growing gut likes to remind me.
No, there's a construction company that dug the whole and doing the installation. I wanted to be involved so I helped do small things like run cables for electricity, bury them, etc. I used Photoshop to do my own planning and rendering though which saved about $1500.

We moved here about 5 months ago only, and I never saw frogs at our old home. Raccoons and Skunks but never frogs. Here there are lots of baby frogs but I didn't see a grown frog until Yesterday. Frogs remind me of a country house I had as a kid. So an unlucky frog dying a slow death in a pool that could be rescued easily, and was, is something I felt like sharing.
Cheers.
