Our pool exploded and the clouds were pretty

It has been raining, and raining, and raining. Well, our pool didn't fair very well because the ground sank beneath the legs... It put up a good fight, became lop sided and then exploded. The kids of the neighborhood enjoyed it for a few swims. This afternoon Sydney noticed a leak (more like a mini fountain) so I duct taped it (because Red Green seems to know how to fix things with duct tape and they seemed to work. :) ) I had a gut feeling that I needed to just give up on the P.O.S (piece of shit...yeah, I'm ticked) so while I was looking on-line for the price of above ground pools I hear a "whoosh" yeah the pool exploded all over the already soaked yard....I laughed so I wouldn't cry. The little hole became a 5 foot hole, and gushed out a bunch of water, OK, all the water.....

"Hey Pa, let's go out to the Wal-Mart and get us a swimmin' pool" (run away Pa, run away fast!)...yeah, that'll be worth it! NO! it will look like this next year!

After our pool exploded all over our yard, I noticed that the clouds were just simply gorgeous!!! so I took some pictures.....

So, our pool exploded and clouds have silver linings...or are just really pretty.
