  1. No not at all. The cement is all sloped away from the pool (very slightly)
  2. We did our pool 3 years ago. So happy with it, especially this summer. Bob designed the farmers porch, which we did at the same time. Wouldn't change a thing. We use the porch is like a another family/dining room in spring/summer/fall. It's not just pools that are impossible to find....I've wired many hot tubs since Covid hit and have a couple more scheduled Hot tubs and pools are nearly impossible to find right now
  3. Yeah would have been nice to get more but it was something. It was just good to have a couple days without blazing sun and 90s.
  4. Wind is crazy here right now just ahead of that line. Lost power about 20 minutes ago which is very unusual for my neighborhood. Got the generator going but it doesn't power the central AC. I doubt they're sending crews out anytime soon to pull branches off power lines.
  5. Nice storm just rolled thru here. decent thunder, about .2" in 10 minutes. Sunny and steamy again
  6. My wife's parents live in Nova Scotia. Her Dad is having open heart surgery next week (had a heart attack a few days ago). She can't travel there to stay with her mom or visit him in the hospital. If the worst happened, we couldn't go to any services. It sucks, but I don't blame them for not wanting anyone from the US to come.
  7. It's the magic of Christmas Bob...Jeez
  8. 89/65 Gorgeous afternoon, Single ply
  9. It been awful. We are leaving today to head home because it's been beautiful everywhere but the ME coast. It's the family's house, so it's not a big deal, but....man the weather is terrible here
  10. Haven't seen the sun (or moon) here at York Beach since Thursday afternoon. Maybe tomorrow? Probably not
  11. York Beach, ME....63, foggy/low overcast. Absolutely miserable Happy 4th everyone....Enjoy the great weather literally everywhere else
  12. I think I heard that here! It's like a warzone tonight...I also think I heard the explosion from down towards Bob's house about 15 minutes ago. Don't ever remember hearing so many explosions around here this far before the 4th. People are bored I guess...spending their extra $600 per week on mortar shells
  13. Huge if true 83/70.........steamy
  14. It's plenty refreshing. After staring at the stupid green cover for 8 months of the year, I'm fine with it getting super warm. The only negative I've had from the water getting so warm is that the PH goes up fast with the temperature. That screws with the the chlorine levels since its a salt water pool. Just have to add some "PH Down" stuff every so often. Oh, that reminds me...A few weeks ago some were talking about "Liquid Pool Cover" to help with temperature and water retention. I hadn't heard of it, but I lose a lot of water thru evaporation. I got some and have been using it for a couple weeks. I think it's working on both fronts. No negative results so far.
  15. May need to buy a few bags of ice this weekend Perfect temp, btw.....
  16. Nice showers now, everything getting a pretty good drink. Upstream looks good, should continue for most of the morning
  17. 67/36.... Prefer yesterday's temps to today's, but can't complain
  18. Pool is 81....kids are enjoying the "home schooling" 76/64
  19. Had flakes in the air here, which is crazy. Sun and clouds now
