We've actually been using it for a few weeks now...but thought
id share some of the FINAL photos since the "trees" went in yesterday.

We're happy NOT to have workers in our back yard (irregularly, unpredictably & unannounced as they ALL were).

C'mon over...the [salt] water is fine...and the beer's always cold !
if you EVER think of building one of these things...call me 1st !

more photos here

dont show 'em to your wife...she might want one...and then YOULL
have a 3.5month nightmare to deal w/ ;)

the only reason FRIENDS ever need a reservation is so i can be
certain to have the RIGHT music playin', the grill warmed up &
plenty of cold beer ready for their arrival ! we dont take reservations
<call aheads are encouraged though ;) >

this should make the value of your double wide go up, right ?

yeah dont i wish....this one probably ranks right up there near the
top of the list on worst financial investments im told you can make....

at best im told it only makes your home "more desirable" over others
that also might be forsale at the same time.

itd be nice to have a guest house wouldnt it...itd probably be where i slept
when i was in trouble...my wife (whos an absolute saint & god-send to me)
knows better than to send me to the garage when im in trouble...she knows
i enjoy it out there too much anyway...sat. tv, phone, beer fridge and all ;)

getting the garage wired...all the important stuff is connected (compressor,
welder, fridge & tv)...hey cant say i dont have my priorities straight :D

Ok, I'll bite................ saltwater???
Tbar

yup...about 800lbs of it...its a little more expensive in the
beginning but it requires LESS chemicals & maint. (so in
the long run it should be cheaper).

the salt/pH level is more 'long the lines of a TEAR from someones
eye (real men dont cry right ;) so its not salty like an ocean per se'
you can just barely taste it.

the salt "generates" (w/out boring you w/ details) NATURAL chlorine...
a salt water pool doesnt SMELL like chlorine, it wont dry your skin out
and it wont bleach your swim trunks or turn hair green...and its not
slimmy on your skin...

once the salt is in the water (dumped in by the bag) it quickly
dissolves...and it DOESNT evaporate...so again maint. (adding
salt) is LOW.

the only way for the salt to leave the pool is by "splash out"
or from overflow (rain storms that raise the level of the pool &
cause "run off" down the over flow drain)
