Our pool was built in 1974, so it's large with a diving board. It is about 82 degrees right now, and doesn't warm up as fast as the smaller, shallow pools they now make. We are wimps. I only like it when it's about 84 or higher. Earlier this summer when we had the triple digit heat, it got to 90 and I loved it!
My plants are also so much happier! A few cacti are still blooming, and I'm hoping my Orange Jubilee will recover. Right now it's a mess of brown stems.
Normally it loves the Fall and gets covered with blooms.
Great on the weight loss, AG! I gained a few pounds from not walking the dog this summer. Now I hope I can drop them from going on my long daily walks again.
