Dolly Wood

I watch alot of the history channel and the travel channel
On one of them the other day, they did a special on Dolly Wood.
Dolly Wood is a theme amusement park in tennesse. Themed on Dolly Parton.

Dolly Wood

So,
Friend that lives in Tennessee take the white trash quiz and scores under 30%.

Now, first, he drinks wine from a box. That by itself should make you 30% white trash.

But he also has family season pass to DOLLY WOOD!
He says it for his kids, but I know better. He is into the grand ol opera stuff.
I bet he even goes to the grand ol opera 3 times a year!

If that is not 100% white trash I dont know what is!
heck he should have lifetime membership in the redeneck white trash society of tennesse!

Dolly Wood Jeez!

white trash?

I AM 27% WHITE TRASH!
27% WHITE TRASH
The white trash in my blood will not keep me from becoming a doctor or a lawyer, but it will keep me from a good haircut and any sort of fashion sense.


I AM 92% ASSHOLE/BITCH!
92% ASSHOLE/BITCH
I am one of those people that love to hear the sound of their voice. That and my lousy attitude make for a mixture as toxic next-day-mexican-dinner-ass-drip.

Did my brother get lucky or did he get LUCKY

One of my bros has been coming over and helping on the pool on weekends.
He is deaf so our communication is not the best.

I sighn worse than I type.

So he comes and helps saturday, about 4pm I thought I asked him to drive me to the hardware store.  Guess not.  about 30 min later he calls thru relay texas asking what kind of cement I wanted.  he just took off without me to get what I needed.  and he did get what i needed. was cool.

So sunday, we are working hard on putting down cement, and he tells me his legs are tired from dancing the night before.
Me being the big brother ask the only good question. 

"So did you get lucky?"

he says "arghkdighh"  (i dont know what the hell he said)
I said did you "get with a girl?"

at this point I think we had some more poor communication. 
I think he said 2 girls.  I know thats what he said.
I said, "you got with 2 girls same time?"
He said,  "no 2 diffrent girls"
me,  "oh so you got with one girl then got with another in the same night?"
he said something i didnt understand,
something about 2 girls same time, or something.
i then told katy, and he started yelling, stuff i didnt understand.
so i just said to him, "ok you got with 2 girls same time then 2 diffrent girls diffrent times later?"

at this point  he quit talking to me.

so im wondering just what the hell kind of party he went to.
and next time he should invite me!

 
editors note.
after reading this after i posted, thought i should clarify.  Just picture said brother, and i think you know who it is, getting mad at me, then really getting mad when i said something to katy.
He said some choice words outloud!  I think i embaressed him somehow!

pool, sides with sand, cement on bottom. sunday 6 pm Posted by Hello


son, moving mason sand from driveway to backyard. Posted by Hello


Main drain, and cement.  Posted by Hello

About half way done with cement on the bottom.


cement bottom day one Posted by Hello

This is about 6pm sunday. 
wife, her sister, my brother and me mixed cement most of the day.
was a big team effort.
Katy mixed it, her sister wheeled it to my brother, they scooped it into 5 gallon buckets
my brother carried it to me and I put it in place.
Notice the sticks sticking up?  that is were the top of the cement goes to.
most of its about 1.5 to 2 inchs thick, but this one spot is 4 to 5 inches thick, that takes alot of mixing to fill.  I just smooth the cement so the top is even with the sticks, then i take the sticks out. 
Also the main drain is in as is the nych for the light.
The wife and I are going to do about 2 hours an evening on cement, should be done wed?  or so.
and during breaks I will finish the plumbing and run the electical.
should be putting the liner in sat. with working pumps and filters.
In other words, no deck done, but sunday we could be swimming.

Cement the bottom tomorrow

 
I will be putting cement in the bottom of the pool sometime tomorrow.
I still have to put in the main drain, shouldnt be but few hours for that early in the am. then its cement time.
if i get all the cement in tomorrow, I will install the liner sunday and start filling with water.
that looks doubtful, as i still have some electrical to run.  Might have to put the liner in next saturday.
probably will plan on that but we will see.  I have plenty to do even with liner out so wont rush things.
