SINCE THE TIMING of public pool openings remains murky, Austin interior designer Terah Kelley plans to outmaneuver the abusive summer sun by plunging into a galvanized steel tub in her backyard, one more properly intended to hydrate livestock. Recently, she and her husband have even built a bar and cabana—outfitted with a refrigerator, fan and teak benches—alongside their 6-foot-wide “stock tank pool.” No cattle have complained. “Since we’re not going on vacation anytime soon, we’re making vacation come to us,” said Ms. Kelley.
