Does anyone have any exciting plans to take advantage of the warm weather? I’m hoping I can make it to the beach this year… but I’m not holding my breath. Luckily, my deck is lovely and private.

What size did you get? Did you partially bury it?
We got a 10 ft pool and we didn’t bury it at all. It’s kind of the perfect depth for both kids and adults because as an adult you can sit in it on the bottom with your arms over the side like a hot tub. For little kids, they can reach the bottom so they feel a lot more comfortable. We just got a little Intex pool pump for it and it works fantastic! Once we get it moved into the privacy fence area we’re going to build a little half deck/bench around one corner of it.
This is great! I didn’t realize you could add a pump. I assume you add chlorine too?
Yep. Not much, but with the pump/filter and a little chlorine you can keep the water clear all summer.
Fascinating… Did you get a liner for yours too?
No liner. Figured it’s designed for holding water for cattle all year round so it should hold up fine for the few summer months we use it. Second season for it and only a few small rust spots where we had some magnets holding hoses.
