So You Want to Have A Swimming Pool In Your Back Yard.... (1 Viewer)

[Simpson & his donkey.]

Well, friends, here's Exhibit A for the reason you don't. We went to open our pool, admittedly a little late, and when they took off the cover, here's what awaited them.

That would be good on the Barbie mate. How did you not no you had a large animal in your back yard. You need a mini foxy on patrol . That would solve all your problems with wild life. Deer what Deer ! Simmo.

You can claim the carcass here in PA, if you happen to hit a deer, you just have to contact the local game warden or the state police. And if it's a buck, you can't keep the trophy.

Hundreds of pounds of good meat is wasted, though, because seldom is it that a deer is hit, and it can be recovered and dressed right away. It's a shame. Venison, marinated in red wine and vinegar, with red cabbage and noodles, and a good Bockbier, mmm, mmm, mmmmm!

Prost!

Reminded of the Chris Farley movie (Tommy Boy) where they run over a deer and put the carcass in the backseat. However, the deer is only stunned and later wakes up smashing its way out of the car. LOL.

I had an uncle who lived in Catasauqua who did get to claim a carcass, but he knew it was fresh. It was struck trying to clear the riverbank along the Lehigh and landed next to hisp barbershop.

Prost!

We have a pool in the front yard, and when we bought the house we didin't like the pool. It looked like a swamp, so as the building renovation was happen soon, we got a hole puched into the bottom and so had a hole for building rubble

Now we have lawn !

By the way, I only live 3 kms (2 miles) from the shores of the Indian Ocean

No pool in my backyard (just a fountain in my man cave below) but my grapes attract raccoons. We have deers, bears, cougars and besides hummingbirds, bald eagles flying over too...

Pools are fun, but they do take alot of work. We had a inground pool for 30 years. We had to replace the liner twice, skimming dead bugs, and adding chemicals is a weekly chore. Thank God we never had any drownings in all those years. Had babby snapping turtles, few dead rodents and birds, but never any large. Our Maple trees unloaded massive amounts of helicopter seeds, the skimmer would clog they were so bad. But the years of enjoyment make all the work worth it.

A very lovely spot you created
