volume conversion

I'm building an inground pool which will hold around 20,000 gallons of water.
Using the conversion of gallons to cubic yards (1 gal=.00495 yd3), I get 99 cubic yards.
Does this make sense given that one material is a liquid and the other is a solid?

cubic yards is not a soild, nor a liquid, it is just a unit of measurement.
Something that is 1 yard long by 1 yard wide by 1 yard tall is 1 cubic yard in volume. It does not matter if it is a liquid or a solid, still the same.
