On one of our stays at the house on June 4 we got a call one morning that the pool would arrive early that afternoon about a week earlier than expected. The pool contractor himself had been surprised and had gotten the call from the driver on the highway while he was already about halfway to Duck. The contractor got over there to unload and put the pool in the front yard. Since they were surprised, it sat there for a few days until they moved it further back and started digging to bury it. But then that got paused for awhile and it was about a week that it was finally put into the ground. In the meantime we had left Duck and through communicating with everyone we started realizing that things were going to be finished much later than we had planned. The pool still needed a deck, equipment, and a fence, and there was still much of the construction left to do. So we realized that we just were not going to be able to rent the house for the 2012 season and to make thinks less stressful that instead of continually postponing the opening we should cancel the season. Sun Realty was real good about it but unfortunately it did mean that they had to move a couple of rentals.
