1. We emptied all the water bags that held down the winter cover.
2. Then we started pulling back the winter cover so we could remove it. (Note: We had to pause so Lori could take a picture to show you how clean and clear the water was.)
3. Once we dragged the cover down to the shallow end of the pool, I had to remove the water that was on the cover and the leaves and sludge that had accumulated over the winter.
4. Next we folded it up for removal to the curb for the trash man. The cover had a few holes in it so I had to toss it.
5. Now it was time to get the filter back together...
...while Lori used the net to remove the leaves and sticks from the bottom of the pool.
You'd be surprised at the diversity of life that can be found in the bottom of a swimming pool.
6. Time for a fudge pop break. Man
7. Well, there it is, my freshly uncovered swimming pool!
8. Now I just had to fill the pool the rest of the way with watter so I could start the filter and check for leaks. Remember the major leak I had last year!
9. The pool was finally filled and past the leak test! Hooray!!!!! It's finally time for that gin and tonic and a toast to the 2007 skinny dipping season!

Thank you for this post - your sense of humor made me laugh and remided me of my father and his on-going love/hate relationship with his pool
Hey, we work good together! It was such a hot day, but your ass is hotter baby! Skinny dipping 2007, I'll drink to that! Happy HNT Baby!
I'll be right over! lol
Those are such great pictures and you two almost look like you are having fun while you work...or is that whistle while you work and Lori takes pictures of yer ass.....
love it...that pool looks so refreshing right about now.
Thanks for the help Lori!!
HHNT xo
That looks like a lot of work. Thank goodness we live in an apartment so we can enjoy the pool without all the work. LOL I'm pretty lazy!
And there is nothing wrong with ass shots. ;-)

HHNT
Hooray for swimming pools! I SO envy you for having your own in your back yard... we have to share "ours" with the bratty neighbor kids. ;)
And you've just made me realize I've NEVER skinny-dipped in my whole life! Am I invited for a dip in your pool?? Or maybe we could check out one of the many nudist resort/spa facilities here in town for some nude public sunbathing when you visit! ;)
xoxo

Love the series but then I always do. That pool looks mighty inviting. Skinny dipping should be outstanding this year. Happy HNT Tony.

Darn all you people with pools! LOL Looks inviting! Can I come over? :) HHNT!
I love when we do outdoor work together too!! It is so fun and it's going much faster than one alone... ;-) You look very happy!!! I'm glad you have such a wonderful place!
That is a clean pool. No doubt you'll be posting some HNT skinny-dip shots.
HHNT to you and Lori.
I was wondering when the pool pics were going to start. I think this is about when I started reading last year. Y'all are a MESS :)
I'll join you!! My dad's still working on getting theirs open and I'm not a patient person (and no, he won't accept our help). Buying plane ticket now . . . HHNT!

HHNT

Sounds like summer fun to me! That pool looks good enough to dive into through the screen.
Only problem is that by the time you do all that work you're too tired to swim.
HHNT!
I'm all about the ass shots. Thanks, Lori!!!
Happy HNT!
Ok
your butt crack is up

There is nothing like opening the pool and going for that first swim. After it warms up of course..hehe It looks good...you 2 did a great job!! :)
I do remember last years pool post well. I hope you dont have to spend much more $$ on that fucking pool!
HHNT Lori and Tony!
So, how cold is that water? Wish we lived in your neighborhood!
