SLUSSER'S 2007
SWIMMING POOL UPGRADE



When there's snow on the mountains, it's time to do
the swimming pool maintenance.  So, starting in late
November, we had the swimming pool upgraded to
include new "PebbleTech" surface to replace the very
stained and ugly white plaster.  Here's a few pictures
that document this traumatic event !!  What a mess !!
