The Pool's Done

On April 5th, the pool guys starting chipping out the pool and finished in less than a day.  On Thursday the plaster was put down and started filling the pool.  For 2 days, 2 hoses ran and filled the pool finishing Saturday around noon.  At 6:30pm, Gerald came over with his pool supplies and helped get the pump running.  Hurray!  It works!

Shortly after house purchase. There is very little water at bottom of pool

Last week, the rains filled the bottom, which quickly turned green and became mosquito breeding grounds.  Muric acid took care of that. 

After the plaster is chipped away.

The steps have cool blue diamonds on them.

Thursday evening the pool is filling up.

John and Gerald fret if the pool pump is going to work.

Checking out the new pool

Hurray!  It's done and beautiful.

Outside

The front of the house. The picture is from the listing when the property was in better shape. After months of no watering many plants have died.

The property has many fruit trees, roses and grass (although currently dormant).

There is a built-in BBQ which just had a new gas line put in.

The pool needs to be done since its cracked up and doesn't hold water.
