Based on what you have told me, it looks like I'll need to buck up and handle the cold air while my kids swim. As long as the outdoor pool is heated and clean, my kids will be estatic. I knew I could count on LPers to tell me what I need to know!

I am giving HoJo's another try in Dec... And I do have two more reservations at Desert Inn in the next couple months...
