VTirelli Posted April 9, 2008 #1 Posted April 9, 2008 well............weather finally came around for a few days, but we have MAJOR renovations going on in the yard, and the 05 is buried in the shed. Main project this year was to get the outside of the house painted, but first,the carpenter had to change any rotten trim we could find. Then we decided to remove a door that we never use and replace it with a window...still no biggie. Then, a few weeks ago, I went out beck to find one of the retaining walls around my pool had let go so in came the mason, he recommended removing ALL of the retaining walls (cement and brick) and putting in new ones. So since we were doing this, we decided to connect the patio to the pool deck so it was one straight walk (jobs getting bigger huh?).....since we're doing all the work, decided to change all the lines to and from the filter so we wont have to worry about leaks. Then it was decided to change the liner etc etc. SO.........looks like I won't be riding for a few weeks. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
BIG TOM Posted April 9, 2008 #2 Posted April 9, 2008 :mo money:GOOD LUCK WITH THAT...WHENS THE FIRST POOL PARTY....
Dano Posted April 9, 2008 #3 Posted April 9, 2008 Geesh V, I thought I tore a lot off of the pile when I tore my bike down. Looks like you got a lot more than me to handle. Good luck! Dan
Hypnosam Posted April 9, 2008 #4 Posted April 9, 2008 I know how you feel. I have a daughter graduating in May and the wife has a list of stuff that she wants done that is longer than the bike and trailer together. On top of that I am booked with Hypnosis Shows for every weekend except her graduation till the second weekend in July. The best part of that it helps pay for more chrome :cool10: Hypno Sam
Yammer Dan Posted April 9, 2008 #5 Posted April 9, 2008 I hear ya!! My "to do" list just keeps growing and bike keeps sitting waiting on me.

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh i am curious , here. why do people , who live in the "upper north east", even bother with a pool? i mean, ain't it frozen for at least six months out of the year? by the time the water warms up, you get, what ? one month of use from a pool? not being ornery, just wondering. just jt
