All the plumbing was done yesterday, extra vinyl pipes had to be purchased and convinced to go together and today Mac started the pump for the first time since it was hit by a tree during hurricane Matthew last fall----it WORKED---no complaints, just the lovely sound of water going through the system.
He then put up a couple more pieces of lattice work and poles. Tomorrow I'm going to help him move some plants over to go around the pool, my Confederate Rose, an orange tree and maybe the lemon one too. We're going to put decorative rock around the base and keep the plants in pots. The plants we had before put all kinds of roots under the pool and made the bottom very lumpy.
I pulled more weeds and fried my brains as it's quite a bit warmer today. I'll post photos tomorrow when we get everything set up.

Sounds like you have been working hard. Looking forward to seeing the photos.
ReplyDeleteYou are both a couple of hard workers - all I managed today was to fill the porch pots with scarlet geraniums and put up my hanging baskets. However, the front of the house looks much improved and now ready for the summer season.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lot of worthwhile work. Bet you're tired.
ReplyDeleteI hear two big splashes coming on.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful when things work like they are supposed to on the first try? Happy gardening and have a great weekend- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteCan not wait to see the photos !

Looking forward to seeing the end result, have some fun with the gardening and enjoy the pool. Hopefully the weather has picked up for you.
ReplyDeleteI am envious. The nearest thing I got to a pool was a fish pond, which is in desperate need of attention. I wish I was ten years younger, I could have got stuck in then. Enjoy your pool when it's all done.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the pictures ...
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Enjoy the pool! Will there be a pool-warming party? (Would it be called a pool-warming party, like a house-warming party?)
ReplyDeleteA pool? That sounds lovely, especially with flowers around it. :)
ReplyDeleteYou must be glad it's done and working. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like you've been busy. Looking forward to seeing all the photos of the work.
