The Pool Will Return!

As long-time readers of my Blog will remember, I used to take photographs holding various books using the pool at my condo as a backdrop.  Perhaps I did it a bit too much, but that photo opportunity was lost when the pool started leaking, and the HOA closed it.  And it has stayed closed for 3 summers in a row.  The condo association thought it would cost too much to repair, and were planning to have it removed.  A number of tenants wanted to pave it over (the only green space in the entire complex) and add more parking spaces. Perfect.  The down side of living in a condo - having to deal with strange rangers.  But when you grab them and try to shake some sense into them, they get all huffy.  In any case, the HOA took the radical step of getting an estimate of how much it would cost to repair the pool, and found it cost far less than believed, and was much cheaper than turning it into a parking lot.  And so the pool will be back.  As will the overused pool background in my photographs. Hurrah!
