Swimming pool problems

Few years ago, we decided to put a swimming pool in our back yard. Looking back, I wonder just what crazy thought was driving that decision. Our summer use of a pool is maybe four month, we have a boat so we aren’t home much, we live two block from a beautiful beach and a pool doesn’t take care of itself. Other than those simple facts, I suppose a pool in our backyard was a rational idea.
The problem with a pool, which isn’t used much, is its ability to accumulate ugly green algae, creating it a place you don’t want to really use. I have so many chemicals in the water, I’m not sure it’s really safe for me to use. My wife and I got in the other day and scrubbed all the algea off the pool. After we finished, the water was so murky we quickly exited. Next day, pool looked great but we didn’t have time to use it. Day after that, the algae had started again.
I think the next idea for the pool is to remove it and make a flower garden. However, I’m also sure we will look at the garden full of weeds in a few years and wonder what crazy thought drove us to remove the pool. 
Life isn’t complicated, we just make it that way. Just Say’n.
