I will do really simple plumbing (new shower head, replacement sink etc) and super simple electrical (just replaced a stove hood a few weeks ago) like a ceiling fan etc.
Otherwise I will call someone in. I lack a lot of the skills.
Not the best pic since it was through the screen porch, but some of the trees behind our pool are 75’ tall. Fortunately we get some SW sun
Highest pool temp we hit this summer was 87F at the end of the June heat wave.
My pool is too chilly for my tastes right now. Lows in the 40s and 50s are killing it. Plus the sun angle is a bit lower so less hours of good sun on it.
Some friends of ours had a den on their property for a couple of months They have a pretty big property with a very long driveway. The den was near the far end of the driveway. They got to see the kittens but then they moved away (the bobcats)
Bobcats population has really exploded in Central Mass.
My wife and daughter saw two in our yard a year or two ago. I’ve never seen one in my life though.
