    This is my 4th above-ground pool and my 2nd 10-footer. Air temp. was 101 in this shot but the water was cold!

    My previous 12 and 14-footers gave a lot of room for my Daughter's family to splash around in when visiting from Chicago, but this size is good enough for just myself.

    You aren't worried about fire? Looks like tinder to me!

    No Peter, I'm not worried about fire. It looks like tinder to me too, and I'm 20 years older than you!

    That growth came from an unseasonal rain in February...normally there's not a single weed in our back yard, and it rarely rains up here in the High Desert.

    See?

    I didn't go in the water, Shirley, because it's too darn cold!

    How do you get in there? Do you launch from that cinder block or what?

    No Ma'am...I enter like the Gentleman that I am: I simply step over the side!

    The rail is 30" above ground.
