As to Sly's comment, another suggestion I would have is to look into making it a salt water pool. Apparently that cuts down on a lot of the regular maintenance.
On a side note, I have a tree frog that has taken up residence in my mailbox. The door doesn't close tightly and although I've removed him several times already, the next day he's back.

Thanks for the info! Fortunately it's already a salt water pool. I would imagine that the chemicals associated with a regular pool would have dissolved the little critter.

Threats to Frogs
The sad thing is that most people don't care a shit worth about things like this.

Yes I had heard about this before. Scary stuff. I've never understood people that don't care about animals.
When I was a kid, the lake at our country house was loud in the mornings and evenings with frogs. You could swim or paddle up to this marsh and there would be dozens and dozens of then hanging out on on lilly pads croaking away. I went back to the same lake just a few years ago. It looks great and the water seems clean, but no more frogs.
