Looks like we got our Christmas presents early, the stinkin' pool pump went out last yesterday afternoon, so I broke the old one down and went and bought a new one this morning and replaced it already, $300 bucks later it's up and running better than new, no presents for joey or Terri this year, always something.

Does everything that is metal rust that bad because you are so close to the salt water?

Yes, if you don't treat metal items that are outside they tend to rust/corrode quicker since we're on top of the Gulf and we get the salt air, it's like anything else, if you maintain things it's does OK, the people that owned the house before us didn't take care of stuff very well, so this is what you get, if you spray WD-40 on metal stuff every 4-6 months it keeps it from corroding.

I guess that's the price you pay to live on top of the ocean, it's worth it.

I guess it is a good thing that "Taking Care Of The Pool" is one of your job descriptions. LOL.
