Having lived "up north" most of my life, I dreamed of having my own pool so when we moved to FL we found a place with one. I must say it is all I had hoped for and more. I love being able to walk out my door and hop in the pool anytime i want. i'm someone who hates to exercise, but swimming and doing water aerobics seems like fun, not exercise to me. I also like to turn on the underwater lights at night as it gives off a beautiful blue glow. Our pool man comes weekly and takes care of cleaning and chemicals, which costs $125/mo. There is added costs for running the pump but it doesn't seem to be much. We just bought a home in TV with a lot big enough for a pool. We've decided to give it 6 months before making a decision but must confess, I am already missing the joys of our own pool
