Oh by the way we actually a real pool (see post from 07) to replace the Sam's club special. Actually that is another thing I bought on my own - as well as the decking that went around it. It is above ground. I still think it is rather ghetto and dream daily of putting in an inground pool. We are also thinking about getting a trampoline for the kids but think it may be too white-trashy. Especially when accompanied by an above ground pool....thoughts??
