1bcalrr,
I also have the exact same raft. $6.76 at Wal-mart, and inflate it every time I want to use it, useing my lung power. I know L.A. is hell on lungs and some who live there can not blow up a small float with out mechanical assistance. But that is not the case with me. The best way to get high is naturaly. It also helps you warm up for the cold swim over to the hot springs. I suggest you deflate it when you return cause the bushes may pop that cheap plastic.
What was the main pool height on tuesday?
I know you directed your Question to Wiz, but I am throwing in my 2 cent opinion.
Happy soaking and don't ferget to smell the flowers!
