Swimming Pools
by: Jeff Lakie
Summer is a welcome treat, especially if you live anywhere that gets a lot snow over the winter! So when summer arrives, getting the pool open and ready is probably your highest priority, and your family and friends are likely already lined up with their swimsuits on!
Starting your pool up for the season
When starting up the pool for the first time in the season, you'll need to drain any water in the pool along with any antifreeze you used to keep the equipment free of ice. Then you can refill it, adding the chemicals necessary to continue keeping it clean for the summer.
Keeping your pool clean throughout the season
Throughout the swimming season you should be brushing the sides of your pool to loosen debris that collects there, you should be reversing your pumping system to help clean out any build up, and you should be vacuuming the water and skimming the surface. This will keep your pool in tip top shape through out the season and it will make your pool an enjoyable place to be near.
Preparing your pool for winter
As winter approaches, and after everyone reluctantly takes that one final swim, you need to prepare it to sit dormant for the few months that you won't be able to use it. Drain the water below the freezing line, drain the water out of the plumbing, and filling the pump and pipes with antifreeze. Finally, cover it for the winter. And, if you get a lot of snow where you live, be sure to mark out where your pool is in case snow builds up and hides your pool, which creates a potential hazard that someone could fall in.
Working on your pool can be a lot of work, but the time and expense involved in maintaining it is much less than the cost associated with repairing it if it does fall into disrepair. And, the squeals of delight from the children as they show off to their friends will make the few moments of work in the spring and autumn not seem so bad.

Do You Believe??
Do You Believe??
by: Gary Durkin
NO. This is not about religion, but more about one of the major pitfalls of many in business. And by ?business? ? yes I include internet business?. especially the internet.
And I?m not talking about believing in the internet, but more about believing what you do? and what you sell.
SO what am I getting at? Well, you can tackle this in 3 ways.
1. You won?t see the CEO of Ford Motors driving a Honda. Nor will you see Ronald McDonald eating in Burger King.
2. If you have never tasted something, how do you know that you don?t like it?
3. Do you jump into a bath, without testing the water first?
OK ? let?s get to the point.
Most sellers on the internet, are in fact ? resellers. They try to sell something else that isn?t theirs. They didn?t create it, make it, design it, but they are happy to promote this to others.
There is NOTHING wrong with that!
The problem lies here??

The Beginners Guide To Making a Water Feature
The Beginners Guide To Making a Water Feature
by: Morgan Bradfield
A water feature is a lovely accent to a landscaped yard or flower garden. It provides a wonderful background for flowers and plants alike as well as providing the soothing sound of trickling water.
Most water features are marble, molded plastic or natural rock.
The molded plastic water features are the lightest and easiest to work with but need special attention in climates where the water freezes over the winter. The fiberglass may become brittle and will break easily if hit or knocked. Marble, rock or cement fountains are much more durable in all climates but are considerably heavier and may be harder to install depending on the size you are planning to purchase.
There are smaller freestanding water features that are self-contained and very elaborate in design. Self-contained refers to the fact that the water used in the fountain is collected in a bowl at the...
