Shawn has a poverty pool and deck
I've already told you, your RNS firepit costed more than my pool
You really don’t know how to take compliments I said your pool is very nice I like the setup with the deck. One thing I’m not jealous of is the cost and Maintance of a pool
ill show you poverty.....
SOON!
SOON!
I do it every 2 years and its held up well as far as no boards rotting out
Pool maintenance is actually pretty simple if you stay on top of it. I dont know why people always think its hard. I literally spend a total of 10 minutes a week checking chemicals and adding whats needed. Another 20-30 minutes vacuuming once a week.
Cost to maintain it has went up since Covid like everything else. I went to the pool store last night and spent $325 and that will get me thru the summer.
Albeit, I didnt buy chlorine as I have enough to get by this year. If I did, then figure another $250ish. Pre covid, I would spend about $300ish total which included chlorine.
Of course I am. But not even deep pockets like you would spend twice the cost for the same vacation. We missed the window for decent priced vacas. Now even if I try to book in July or August, triple the price. Absurd.
The real reason
Well wife has family in Vermont we visit yearly so we go in the summer. Rural Vermont in the winter.. no thanks.
We get 12 good weeks a year...why people travel during this time is beyond me.
Honestly when we had the place in Ft Myers the summer was the best because it was empty. Free rein of everything and prices cheap and it’s great on the beach there in the summer, hot with a cool breeze.
Summer is the worst time to travel, airlines jack up prices starting in June until mid August, really the best window for vacations is right after the holidays, late spring and early fall.
Because my daughter is on summer break and my wife is off all summer working in the school bus system. I don’t want my daughter to miss any minutes at our highly rated schools and miss out out on important knowledge. I guess no one cares in IN about that.

Man. You sprung for the one with seats AND cup holders! Rich mofo right there. I gotta get the normal rectangle blow up one.
If you use the 3" tabs, they are like $260 for 40lbs right now which is crazy
The ridiculous summer travel rat race is another reason to have year round schooling (obv the same # of school days per year, just more breaks in between). Flatten out travel demand, keep kids from forgetting everything over summer, all good things.
I bought my parents tickets from Arizona to chicago for $324 I go drop them off and they had two small luggage and they want to charge $190 like wtf . I get all pissed my mom says don’t worry that what we paid in the way here. They lose one of there bags and they find it a 2 days later and I get there money back never again will I fly them out frontier. Rather put for south west id I had known.
Bags cost more than the flight wtf
$324 flight
$380 for 2 bags
