The Pool is a BIG project!





Like many things in life, the pool is a lot more work than anyone expected. The cement for the shallow end was pretty straight forward (she says). A truck came, poured cement into the hole, and the boys levelled it out. Especially John the master of all things cement.

The deep end is a different story. All the cement for the bottom (which slopes from shallow end) and sides (which also slope) has to be hand mixed and poured. I think we're on 3 weekends going on 4.

But overall, progress is great. The weather has cooperated which is a bonus. Rain is not the friend of wet cement.
