Very well done.
That was a lot of work!
Maybe you can actually swim by Monday if this goofy weather clears up.

That looks great. You really did a top notch job. I may have missed it Froggy but did you get the job with the park service you wanted?

Looks great! Looks very comfortable. I am jealous, your pool water is so clear. We just opened our pool this weekend and its not pretty. After a few days of shock hopefully we will be able to enjoy our too.

i put 30 lbs of shock into that one back in april to lose the nice green coloring,,lol,, and spent days dragging leaves out of it. the winters here arent cold enough to stop algea, so we seldom cover it, and are ussually able to swim into sept or oct with out heating water, so i keep it open and add about half the recommended chemicals over the winter months, then start cleaning it out early april and its swimable by the first of may.

Looks great we redid our pool liner last year only to open it to a failed cover and 1/4 inch of slug .It's a small pool so I had it clear in 2 days and kids from the nieghborhood in it in 3 days.

We just had our Deck totally redone .Lowes just dropped off our Grill,table and chairs .

I like the lattice I was going to put one up on the deckside that has brick from the neighbors house and do the plant hanging thing like yours

We get to enjoy it for a week then here we go to see the mouse a week at SSR can't wait.

Thanks for the Pics.

we have tomatoes growing up the lattice now, but are adding in a lady banks rose and several varieties of jasmine vines, as those grow inm i'll remove the grass mats from the roof and let the vines and flowers cover it.
