They're Wrecking My Pool

The pool removal continues - we've got the liner out, and hopefully the wall panels will go this weekend. Duncan was quite worried when the skimmer and water return fittings came off; the liner started bouncing very oddly when it was swatted. Guess who did the swatting?


He's also been helping with the spring garden cleanup. Last week I filled four bags with garden debris. Thursday morning I put two of them out for pickup. The other two will have to wait until next time, thanks to my helper:


Finally, we mentioned in our last post that sticks are best carried by one end. Duncan wanted to be quite sure that everyone understood this, so he demonstrated using a tasty piece of the former pool equipment screen:



To the uninitiated, the second photo may look better balanced. Unfortunately, I missed getting a photo a few seconds later, when a 90ยบ turn got his legs completely tangled in the stick. It was so embarrassing for him; he couldn't quite figure out how to untangle them!
