We're Getting a Pool!

Welcome to my blog. DH and I have decided to embark upon the wonderful path of pool ownership. While we're really excited about the prospect of drinking margie's by our glistening, beautiful new pool, we have lots of trepidation about the impending construction, potential delays, and who-knows-what types of problems that may crop up.

There isn't a lot of recent information on the internet about pool companies and people's experiences with them; I think one of the reasons is due to the economic downturn, ever-rising oil prices, and the overall impact this has had on the pool industry. People just aren't in a position to purchase pools these days, as they struggle to hold onto their homes and fill up their vehicles with gas.

However, we've decided to take the plunge (pun intended, hee hee..) We're in a reasonably stable financial situation, and are paying for the pool outright. So this blog will chronicle our experience with getting a pool - the good (hope it's all good), the bad (fingers crossed that this is minimal), and the ugly (gulp)!

Buckle in, and join us for the ride!
