It is far healthier for our children than an indoor pool where indoors in that humid heat germs survive.

So they say it doesn't make money, but with a retractable roof on it which then can be used summer or winter, rain or shine with a reasonable restaurant looking out over the water at the beautiful views, then we could be well on the way to making the pool a success.
