Mortswife: Wow ... 32º Brrrr, it's still cold where you live! We've been in the mid to upper 80's here for the last month. It's been real nice though since the humidity hasn't been real high yet. I dread the coming months with upper 80's - low 90's and very high humidity that zaps all your strength! The older I get the more the humidity gets to me but I can't imagine living where it gets so cold and stays cold for long!

Lynn: Our pool is outdoors. It's in a screened enclosure. We have a long enclosed porch with windows (some southerner's call them Florida rooms) and just outside the door is the covered wood deck that attaches to the cement pool deck ... the entire area is screened and runs the entire length of the back of the house. It's the only outdoors our cats have ever known and they love it out there.

This is looking from the covered deck area out over the pool towards the backyard.
