ImportKiller's Pool - The Finale
ok, now that I have some time I will explain the cement episode. The crew of mexican day laborers came last week to backfill teh pool, tam it all down and level it for the cement. They got more dirt in teh pool than in the hole they were backfilling but thats another story. They get all done and the owner of the company tells me that he is going to call the fence guy to come and remove my old fence and install the new fence before the cement is done so that he can cement right up to the fence. Fence gets done and looks really nice...until....this morning when the mason and his band of day laborers show up to install the forms and lay the cement. After taking measurements and scratching their heads for a few minutes they decide that the ground is too high and that they now have to break up all the compacted dirt and remove some. Now mind you that I have already tilled and leveled the backard and removed 27 wheelbarrow fulls of dirt/rock. They removed 4" of dirt on the ENTIRE perimeter of the pool...and piled it up around my newly tilled and leveled bakyard.....there is now 5 yards at least of extra dirt there. They say they can spread it out because they cannot take it with them.....needless to say I was on the phone with the pool company and after flipping out for 10 minutes they are sending out a supervisor tomorrow to evaluate and remove the soil.....I should make dvd's of this project and sell it on pay-per-view
oops, I mentioned the fence bu forgot to tell you the real problem.........the fence was installed using the original ground level as a guide, now theat they removed so much soil there is a 3" space between where the top of the cement and the base of the fence....and THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!!! BASTIGES!!!! The only way this pool will be worth it is if I can get my hot neighbor to come over for a dip



..Damn that felt good..
