PUT ANOTHER LOG ON THE FIRE..........
What to do when the pool company tells you there was NO Possible
Way they could have put that over sized
Big Gray Heater/Pool Filter anywhere else but right smack dab next
to the pool deck.....
They seemed to forget that when we signed our contract they assured us the
equipment would go in the corner behind bushes....

"Oh we didn't mean behind the bushes we meant somewhere near the bushes".....
So said Larry our pool salesman.....
So we called back the Amigos.....
and more concrete was poured.....

And a plan was put into place......
The Boss let me have free rein on the design....
It took one week....

A few moments where not knowing Spanish made communicating difficult...
But we got through the general ideas and sizes I wanted....
With a lot of hand motions and a big tape measure...
And they knew they had a deadline because I was having a
Blog Party!!!!

And they worked and worked.....
and it began to take shape.....
Putting on the finishing touches....
They had to build the extra wall and curve it to hide the equipment from sight....
If not the minute you walked into the backyard from the gate you would have seen it...
They followed the plan perfectly...
TA DA!!!!!!
Just a little something to take the chill out of the air.....
The Boss hates building and maintaining a fire....
I'll have to tell you sometime how I almost caught our last house on fire.....
So we installed a gas line and gas logs....
No mess No fuss.....lights in two seconds and no soot to clean....
I.... ofcourse..... being the Frugal one in the family thought we should have passed on
the extra cost to build this thing to the Pool Company....
Or At Least to Larry the Liar.............

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Your house is beautiful. Will my timeshare trade there???
Better Business Bureau. Let him and the company owner know that you're contacting them, too. Who knows, you might just put some fear into them. Do you have an ombudsman's office or a television station that investigates things like this? One of our local stations does this and the "culprit" gets some coverage on prime time news after the investigation ensues! It seems to work wonders. The fireplace DOES look wonderful! I know you'll enjoy it immensely. We love our fire pit and will probably use it even in the winter. S'mores are good any time of year! Hope you had a great turkey day! Sue
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
