100 Greatest Songs Ever - Part 1

This was a fun project. Over the course of the last two months I'v put together a list of my 100 favorite songs. The only stipulation is that the songs must be at least 5 years old. They gotta stand the test of time after all! As 100 songs is rather a lot, I'll post them in 10 song chunks.

Let's get to it...in alphabetical order:

A Day in the Life - The Beatles
A Little Less Conversation - Elvis Presley
Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love - Van Halen
Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing - Chris Isaak
Bang a Gong - T Rex
Barracuda - Heart
Beautiful Day - U2
Billy Jean - Michael Jackson
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel

Swimming Pool Renovation!

We bought our new home in October last year. One of the benefits of the home was that the previous owner had already done a great deal of renovations. New kitchen, great new guest bathroom, etc...The swimming pool, though had not been worked on in quite some time. They kept it working and clean, but it hadn't been resurfaced in nearly 30 years, had no heater, and was leaking. Since winter was coming, and it'd be far too cold to swim without a heater, we let the pool go until now. It got ugly, but spring is here (and with it our income tax refunds!) and the time has come to get the pool renovated! Resurfaced (PebbleTek), replacing the non-working light, adding a heater, new tile. Pretty much a new pool!I'll keep adding photos as the process continues!
