Re pool deficiency: The Wall Street Journal had an article May 28 (might be behind paywall; it’s in the tech gear section) on using stock tanks (water tanks and troughs usually used for watering livestock – often made of galvanized steel) as a pool substitute. Might even fit with MaryKatherine’s rural southern roots. (-: And surely her new husband can figure out installation and any needed filters.
