Goodbye Pool

The pool is being removed at Sta. Rita. The water was pumped out last week. Holes are being punched through the bottom in several places. Dirt and debris from other pool jobs is being brought in to fill the hole. More grass to bask on! And more places for the people to sit outside and enjoy the sun. They say there might be an outdoor fireplace so I expect the people to spend more time outside, even in Winter. Change. I can deal with that.
But I will miss seeing mallard duck couples swim in the pool. Checking it out until they realize it has too much chlorine. And the way the sun sparkled on the water.
