I'd go ahead and paint it, but be absolutely sure that the paint
stays on your side. You don't want his side to have paint dripping
through the cracks. Frankly, I don't know how you could do it. Maybe
someone here has painted one side of a fence.

Another idea would be to clean it and protect it with something like
a deck/wood protector. That way it shouldn't look bad in a few years.

Very sound advice. But if you are going to be neighbors, it is a good idea
to go and talk to them about it. This is a way to get to know them before
buying. You will know in advance whether they are good/bad.

The last one In retrospect dumping the salt OUT OF the bags into wheel
barrow ( clean) spreading around the pool with shovel might of been a better
idea, to bad I didn't think of that.
