The first thing im gonna do is rip up the backyard for my intake pipe from the ocean. Ahhh no need for skimmer,heater, sump, fuge, nuttin. Just pumping 20 gallons an hour from the ocean  Turtle sanctuary baby....

A German woman built a saltwater swimming pool by the ocean at her property in Stella Maris, which is just to the north of us. She never thought out the concept properly, though, and ended up gouging out a huge rectangular tidepool by the beach. It fills up at every high tide, and is a great place to look for nearshore invertebrates and fish.
I was thinking about doing something similar on our property, but realized that I'd probably just screw up our water table -- we get all our drinking water from our wells -- and just content myself with feeding the wrasses and schoolmasters with bits of bacon off our docks when I go down for visits.
