Pool Position 3: Hot Vinyl

July 16, 2008 by Amy

::deep-voice over guy::

You saw them in Pool Position, when the behemoth had to be moved. You were on the edge of your seat in Pool Position 2: Hauling Sand as they moved a mountain. Now, see our intrepid heroes in their next adventure: Pool Position 3: Hot Vinyl.

Can they beat the heat and get the pool set up in time?

* * *

The ground was leveled.

There was one place the dog should not be.

So she stayed here.

Once the ground was level, they laid the tarp.

They opened the pool.

They stretched the pool.

But the vinyl would not give.

They would have to let it sit in the heat until it was hot enough to handle.

* * *

While the sun beat down on the vinyl, there were parts to gather.

A lot of parts to gather.

And ladders to build.

Very tall ladders.

Peace out.

* * *

Once the vinyl was hot enough to handle, they assembled the pool.

And checked for level (again).

And the dog found her place by the pool.

Will the pool hold water? Or will it collapse on them all?

Brace Yourself: The Water Will Rise.

    I’m loving the story of pool position. I’m looking forward to the completed project. Hey, we can have a pool party!

    It’s a hoot watching you guys play pool contractor. I’ve learned a bunch, like, if I ever do this, I’m buying the self-inflating kind…

    Is it bad that I’m sitting here giggling over all this? *G* I hope everything went well and that you now have water IN the pool. *G*
    Have a great time with your new pool!
