This summer, mostly while we were away, we had a pool put in the backyard. We love it. It's late Sept and there has been quite a heat wave so we are still enjoying it. We'll close after Thanksgiving.
It looks better now as we've laid sod and fixed up flagstone, etc. But, they were able to install without disrupting the existing gardens. The back wall of the garage was taken off to get the necessary equipment in and then put back up! The pool is 16x32 and is kept at 84F! It is a saline pool and it is so much easier (and less expensive) to maintain than the chlorine pool we had in Dundas. The water is much nicer, too. The heat is from a heat exchanger which is also a lot more efficient than the gas heater we had in the past. Can't get Kaylee to go swimming yet, but we're working on it. There are stairs so she could get in and out. She fell in the last pool when she was a pup and couldn't get out - only ladders. Maybe next summer.

Sweet looking pool and yard. Ethan and I are moving in ... ;-)
Is this the pic that was circulating around school on Sept 4 that had your name synonomous with the B-word? Very nice. Definitely have to come over for a visit. I'll keep my usual date of father's day weekend if that's alright with you. 84F is good for me.
