Happy Labor Day weekend! Well here is my pool in the new house. It is original to the Bernoudy house though my parents restored it a few years back. No filter. You just drain it once in a while. Small pools like this are called Martini pools or "crotch-coolers".

Fun. I've been saying I want one of these in my next home. No pool maintenance, but still some water.
