Hoppy Easter!

Steampunk Bunny seemed appropriate, no?

 

It’s been a while, and anyone wondering where we’ve been at Hobby Hysteria, well, I won’t bore you with the details but let it be known we’re aware we’ve been gone for a while.  For me, Swimming Pool season is finally here after one of the longest, harshest winters in my 38 years of life.  Ice storms, Polar Vortexes, Cold booms and the unrelenting assault of snowfall after snowfall had my industry very worried.  Thankfully the warmer weather has begun and we can get out there and get some things done.  Like this, for instance:

I opened this pool Saturday and was pleased to see that the winter had been easy on this pool; very little debris, just some sand and silt on the bottom that needed to be vacuumed up, and when I was finished it looked even better.

Shocked, tested and balanced, and ready to be used once it warms up (the water was around 40 degrees, or 4C, when I took this photo).

I guess what I am saying is thanks for understanding, for being patient, and for reading anything we post up here when we do get around to it.   I promise there is more coming this week, with a submission from a good friend even!!

Happy Easter Monday, and keep on being Hysterical!
