Update on my Above Ground Swimming Pool...

No interest to you, of course... but I have to brag.

Now obviously my pool doesn't compare to a built-in pool, as probably most of you have. BUT... oh my goodness I'm loving it. From 11am this morning until, ohh... ½ hour ago, or 3pm, I was in my pool. I bought a bluetooth speaker, waterproof, and I had my smooth jazz playlist on as I was floating under crystal clear blue skies... half the pool in sunshine and half in the shade.

I was in heaven.... but wait, you haven't heard it all yet. I bought some blow-up Parrot floaty's that hold one of those Costco Red Plastic cups.... so next to me in my pool I had a parrot holding an iced cold cup of iced tea. How much was I enjoying myself? - - -

Well, this evening we have to prep my boat for a trip to the lake tomorrow... lot of work... loading tubes, kneeboards, ropes, stocking food and drink, etc... it takes a while... BUT, as soon as it's stocked and ready I'm going back into my pool... after the sun goes down..... and I am doing that because:

I bought an LED lit air mattress for ostentatious old people to float in their pools listening to music while the rest of the world burns.

Gotta admit, Steve, Waterfield.... I'm getting closer and closer to one of those tropical locations for a week, or two, or month, or the rest of my life - JamesJM
