We filled the pool for the kids today.  It's not a huge pool but still a good size just past my knees if I am stnding in it.  Perfect size for them to get cooled off an play but not so deep that I have to worry a whole lot.  i still sit right on the deck and watch while they play.  We called the water guy to bring water to fill it and it was going to take about a week for him to get here with all the calls he has right now, so Joe decided to get a friend and bring a fire truck over to fill it!  That was neat and in in no time we were watching the kids swim.  If anything we had trouble keeping the water in the pool the pressure behind the hose was CRAZY... but now it is done and the kids can swim  Happy day! 

Cheers
