		<description><![CDATA[Once the concrete was removed it was time to dig down behind the pool.  On the bright side, you know exactly how far down you have to dig and any water there was draining out through the leak that had allowed it all to get in making the ground quite dry.

		<description><![CDATA[The wheel couldn&#8217;t quite reach the deepest sections of the concrete pad, but it got close.  Once that was done, I started into concrete removal.  The right tool here is a jack hammer.  This tool is quite expensive though and I didn&#8217;t feel like spending even more money at the renal place. [...]]]></description>

It was early Summer and I hadn&#8217;t spent to much time on the patio yet since the weather wasn&#8217;t that great yet. It started to rain and then the thunder and lightning came in.
