First, congratulations.

Now the real stuff:

Make sure you know what you are getting into. Talk to others who have
pools
and not just about how nice they are on hot days. You want to be ready,
willing and able to take care of it unless you plan to have every aspect
of
your pool hired out including the chemical and cleaning.

The maintenance issue doesn't concern me too much. I can handle it. When I
was a kid I took care of my parent's above ground pool, and my neighbor's in
ground which is about the size of yours. I did both, and was able to do it
as a kid, so I bet I can do it now.

I am mostly concerned with two things is above or below the ground better,
and if in the ground what material is best?
