Even Closing Our Pool Is A Challenge This Year

We were almost done closing the pool this afternoon when we realized that our trusty Shop Vac, which we use to drain the lines of water for the winter, was in fact sucking... but in the wrong sense! It had very little actual suction, which is a major problem when you need to pull many litres of water across many metres of pipes!

Vicki's now gone out and bought a replacement appliance, but I've got tutoring coming up shortly, meaning that this job will now stretch into its fifth day! What a year!! (And we still don't know what was causing the pump pressure problem.)

Yay, it's Friday and the pool is closed!
