I’ve been looking at employer connections to EAR (trying to find a connection between jobs in the areas that EAR attacked). Recently, I’ve been looking at pool construction. First, there were a ton of permits during the time EAR initially hit (and earlier that year) in 1976. I found these permits using the Sac Bee archives. I then matched those to the areas that EAR hit, and found that there were certain clusters surrounding those areas that he hit. Further, I found that there were pool permits within walking distance to a victim the same month of an attack.
Second, I know that the blue waterproofing paint was found at scenes in late 1977 (which some have showed on her before that it may be related to painting the bottoms of the pools).
Next, I looked at all the relevant pool companies in the areas (especially surrounding the initial hits) and found the following:

I looked at Aquarius Pools and their retail operation Pool, Patio 'n Things:
Address: 5104 Arden Way at Fair Oaks Blvd.
Chain Operation for several years, businesses in the following areas (note the proximity to the attacks, some only within a mile of the attack)
Couldn't find address - Mission Viejo (orange county, near Irvine)
1822 Mt. Diablo Blvd. Walnut Creek, CA (2-4 miles to the Concord and Walnut Creek attacks)
5104 Arden Way, Carmichael (close to the Del Dayo attacks, which always seemed like an outlier of EAR's MO to me - like he knew the area, or had a need to be there for some reason)
805 10th Street, Marysville
3124 McHenry Blvd, Modesto (within one mile of the modesto attacks, another series of attacks that didn't seem right to me - distance from Sac, etc.)
Chico - couldn't find address (near Redding)
San Jose - Couldn't find address during the time of EAR
Aquarius Pools also sold Solar Panels (there was the solar panel connection - door to door salesperson).
There were Aquarius trucks seen near a few of the EAR attacks.
Here's an article about the demise and the arrest of the GM of Aquarius: www.poolspanews.com/business/legal-regulatory/former-california-builder-is-imprisoned_o
Then there was Sunset Pools West, Inc. - which had a location in Santa Barbara in the 1970’s.
Point is that this could be a connection to EAR’s employment. Allows for him to be an area for some time for work related (legitimate) reasons and as he’s going to and from, he could’ve scoped out the area surrounding it. It also provides some level of flexibility (with time), as I now know that pools are a seasonal business - and EAR rarely hit during the summer months when pools were in full demand (maybe he was busy working on pool construction). Thanks to morf13 and winters for their help on this. Without them, I wouldn't have this much info on this. Any thoughts/insights/questions are welcomed.
