Well, I learned a lesson today. Two years ago I took our pool down and stored it in the shed. Big mistake!!!! Mice ate their way through and nested in it. Eight mouse sized holes! I found this out after I bought a half Yard of sand and re-levelled the pool pad.
Anyway, a frantic search on Kijiji, and I found an almost identical pool, a 12' diameter 3.5' deep pool, brand new in box, still sealed, for $250. Pics after I set it up.
This pool will get stored in our basement over winter!
