A little diversion needed right now...
So the pool is uncovered with the help of the Sons of SoulSlam. Though a little inattention got me some dirt and leaves in the drink, but I guess that's a learning experience yes? Note to OSSS: put away the iPhone when we work.
Got some new fittings and o-rings for the pump & motor. If you remember last season, we had to replace the motor by the grace of Hurricane Irene (2011). Hurricane Sandy (2012) did no damage per se, but I had to hustle to get pool squared away in light of the oncoming apocolypse, so I was a little hazy, pool water-wise when I opened this year.
Anyway, pool pump and motor readied, I added about 8" on H2O to the oasis. Flipped the switch and PERFECTO! We have filtration!!!!
So Monday night (which was last night if your reading this today)I was outside around 9:30pm adding some pH (3 lbs.) and some shock...let the filter run overnight and we have some clarity brewing. Picked up some more pH to really get this party started.
We sink the ladder next weekend. Open for business then!
