the pool

Yesterday my dh put an ad on Craigslist for our pool. We don't have the time (or money) to put into it. It was here when we moved in and not in the greatest shape. We've never used it. The people before us got it for free, put it up and dug too deep and the liner is ripped and leaks. The pump and filter look brand new but there is no electric hooked up to see if they work. The deck needs some TLC. Anyway, Jason put the ad up yesterday afternoon for a free pool and asked me to check last night to see if there were emails about it. Come to find out, we have to verify the ad first and then its published. So it didn't get published till about 8pm last night. Within about 30 minutes we got the first email, and then a phone call. Someone came out to look at it last night but its too big for their yard (15' x 30' plus the deck). Within the first 3 hours, so by 11pm last night Jason got another 5!!  calls and had to turn his phone off. We have one person coming out today to look and he is *planning* to take as long as it's not too bad, knowing it needs a liner and deck work. I just checked my email and had 5 or 6 emails this morning. I had to call Jason about something else and he said he had 5 messages about it already and somebody was calling through as we were on the phone!! I can't believe how many people use Craigslist! Just amazing! I ended up removing his cell # from the ad, so now they have to email me. Otherwise he will keep getting interrupted at work and get in trouble. We had no idea how big the response would be or his # never would have been on there in the first place, LOL.
