Some Progress...

Well, we finally made some progress on the pool. After 1 week of nothing since excavation, they have finally moved the gravel from our driveway to the pool. They also installed a pump in the ground that is supposed to drain out any excess water...I'm not sure it's working though. The pump is attached to our garden hose and no water is coming out. The hole has filled back up quite a bit, and it's covering the gravel. The gravel was intended to provide a solid ground for the steel workers to walk on when installing the steel frame for the pool. The steel guys are scheduled to come out this morning, but will have to drain the pool since the pumps aren't working. My guess is that it will push them back another day - even the old pump isn't working and I can't figure outwhy! At any rate, here is a recent picture.
My next priority: get the irrigator and plumber BACK out here to fix our neighbor's sprinkler system and pool backwash pipe. It's one thing to take a long time to get our pool done, but when it affects someone else, that's when I start having to stay on top of things to make sure they get done.
