Description
This is one area of my yard, the far corner where we normally enjoy our 20 x 40 pool. This is the current state of the pool while it waits to have the remainder of the liner removed. Ground water is a *huge* problem and the draining of the problem areas painstakingly slow. There are a lot of photo categories this fits into: horror was my first choice but I guess scenic is a calmer one (for me anyway - some scene isn't it???). For the last few weeks this has dominated and consumed my time. I hope this is resolved before it's time to close it up. argh!!!
p.s...all that crap in the bottom and everywhere else is BAMBOO droppings from our neighbor's 'landscape'. This bamboo is 30 feet high and completely rampant. Can you read my mind???

Arggh! We just found two small holes in our liner yesterday. Luckily I was able to patch them. But, holy cow, nothing like that! YIKES!

We have an above-ground pool that is a pain, too.

Ohh Linda, you can always change into a skateboard ramp for the kids, lol. My goodnes all joke aside this is terrible. I hope it doesn't cost you too much to get this fixed. Bummer heh and exactly during the summer. Murphy's Law I guess, lol. I hope you're well.

What a nightmare!

Oh, man! That's a shame, Linda! That would be a major headache! Most munincipalities have codes covering such things as your neighbor's bamboo growing out of control and posing a nuisance for other residents. You might want to check your city's website. Hope you get it all sorted without too much expense! :-P

that's not good, not good at all!:( i can see why you named this 'my current headache', wow, i too hope it doesn't cost you much and that it's fixed before summers close! as far as the neighbor thing i would surely look into city laws for care of trees hanging into other peoples yards! good luck!:)*5

I guess the first thing is to try to reason with the neighbor and work out a solution together, the second is checking bylaws, the third is trying to place a thin transparent net to stop the onslaught, the fourth is that fellow walking straight again.
