Pool Update--Nearing Completion

At the Beginning

As I wrote yesterday, there is almost nothing sadder than an empty pool on a hot summer day--and yesterday was that hot summer day. I longed to be floating on the surface of my crystal clear pool in the afternoon sun.

Demolition

But--the pool project continues. The coping and tile work are complete. There are a few small white coat repairs and the caulking which remain.

Coping Installed

But--water will begin returning into the pool today!  We should be swimming again by Saturday or, even possibly, as early as Friday!

Yay.

Coping and Tile

It is looking awesome and I can hardly wait. The sound of dollars flowing through the water pipes of the house should be the next big event. For up to three days!
