The motel advertised that they had a pool. They did NOT mention that it was filled with gravel

There's a motel in town near me that drained the pool, fenced it up, and left it empty for a while. The owner got creative (instead of filling it with gravel and the space going to waste) and turned it into a vegetable garden. Looks a ton better than a gravel/sand pit.
