Your running a little late....Mines been open for about 2 weeks....crystal clear water and a almost 11 year old jonesing to get in

Hubby opened ours a few weeks ago also. Our crazy dog has been swimming a few times already.

As for planned projects, I could go on forever. Moved here 1.5 yrs ago, been in "project hell" ever since.

- finish building 3 level retaining wall
- build firepit/patio area
- replace gutter on shed & 2 sections of fence that tree took out
- finish weeding & mulching garden beds (previous owners sure loved their garden beds yet had no plants in most of them besides weeds!).
- plant a crapload of flowers
- powerwash house & deck
- stain deck
- paint master bedroom
- finish new molding throughout most of house (1/2 done)
- turn unused room into son's playroom (no rush - he's only 6 wks old)

A lot to get done with a newborn and hubby working 12 hr days! Patience is a virtue. At least this year we don't have to lay sod, put in fencing or replace hardwoods & carpet throughout the whole house. Buying a fixer upper = fun times!

I've wanted to do this for awhile but I don't have a separate hot water heater. My oil fired boiler is my only source for hot water used for showers, laundry, etc, along with heating the house.

Anyone know if I can add a tankless system to my current set up?

Yeah, that's one of those things on my list, but this year I'm getting the house heat pump replaced. 27 years old. It's time before it blows up on me. And putting a ductless unit in the garage upstairs and down.

 

[JustStoppingBy]

yuuup!

Well, I already know where. The question is when? Oh, and who??

If you have to use your boiler 24/7 for on demand hot water you would be better off getting a more efficient source whether it's a low mass boiler or a tankless hot water heater; low mass boiler would save you on your overall energy bills as it doesn't stay 180 degrees all year round, only heats up when needed or with tankless you could shut your boiler off for at least half the year......alot to look into

And putting a ductless unit in the garage upstairs and down.

Ductless mini splits are nice, we have one in our basement that acts as a heat pump, dehumidifier and air cleaner.

Today was a good yard day.
Aerated, fertilized and overseeded the yard
Finally built the fire pit after two years of "next weekend"
Had my 3 year old "helping" me with the fire pit which was definitely

Next weekend looks like moving some dirt for top dressing some bare(ish) spots, leveling the low ones and fixing up the slope on my driveway edges.

Renting a Bobcat this weekend if we don't get a bunch of rain. Need to move some dirt and fill in the holes from the stump grinding. Got a load of top soil today and will mix with soil conditioner/compost and plant grass. I don't think too far ahead.
Pressure washing the deck and sealing it may be next. I never even finished the things I said I was going to do this Winter. Inside painting etc.
