Our Pool is Hot, Hot, Hot!!

I have a love/hate relationship with our pool. On the one hand, I hate how much time I spend cleaning it and checking the chemicals; on the other hand, I'm in it almost every day!

We have a heating blanket on it which keeps it very warm. How warm you ask? Well today, I went to get in and it was HOT, not warm, not tepid, HOT. I got out my thermometer and measure it... 112 degrees on the top! It was actually a little painful to get in initially. I had to "cannonball".

However, there is cooler water underneath and after swimming for awhile and mixing it up, it still measured a balmy 92 degrees!


I'm letting the pool rest without the blanket for a few days.

Wow...that is hot!

It was great meeting you last night! Hopefully, we'll be able to do it again sometime.

Take care!
