WELCOME HOME

We got home this past Wednesday and there wasn't much snow, mostly just where there were drifts or piles from plowing.  But, this morning when I looked out, it was a much different view.  It is all white again.  I guess March is going out like a Lion.  Hope that maybe this will be the last storm for this winter, but probably not.  Here are a few pictures.

This is our front yard.  It was mostly bare and the driveway was clear and dry.


This is the back yard.  There was only a drift along the right side when we got home.


This is the side yard.  Won't be putting the dock in for awhile yet.


This is out bird feeding area right outside the kitchen window.  The feeders are full.

Pool

This past Monday the neighbors across the street had a new pool installed.  This is the second one in the neighborhood in the last few weeks.  The previous one was an in ground concrete pool that took all day to pour the cement.  This second one is the type that is a fiberglass liner that is set in a hole.  Pat got some great pictures of the lift of the liner over the house.  It was only about an hour operation.  Here are the pictures.

The "tub" arrived on a trailer.


Close up view of the tub.


The crane getting set up for the lift.


Just about ready to be attached to the tub.


Attached and ready to lift.


Checking everything out.


Starting the lift to go over the house.


Just about there.


Over the house now and getting ready to lower into the hole.


Going down. Must have fit well because it was only a short time until the crane came back around and started getting ready to leave.
