Some pictures of the Pool I had built started in 02/02/05 finished 04/18/05.

Midnight blue diamond bright, salt system, heat spa, glass spillway, deck jets, electronic in house control, and side spa control.

Hell if you going to spend the cash do it up right ;)

I haven’t figure out what we (wife and I) wish to do in the back as far as landscaping.

Beautiful !!!!

**dorokusai** · 08-15-2005 09:51 PM

I am picturing myself naked in that pool, right now.

**disneyjoe7** · 08-15-2005 09:58 PM

Doro,

You're scaring me

**George Grand** · 08-15-2005 10:07 PM

Pride of ownership baby! You and the wife enjoy that new pool Steve.

Hey Troy, you looking at this? Guy KNOWS how to treat houseguests!

**Ricardo** · 08-15-2005 10:09 PM

Stop looking; we already found the place for the next gathering :D :D :D

**disneyjoe7** · 08-15-2005 10:12 PM

Oh, I almost forgot I have an automatic overfill drain. I can say that saves me some headaches, by forgetting to shut off hose, having pool water kill the grass. Re-rolling and Re-rolling a 100' hose that I would need to run to street. It's all sweet.

Thanks guy's glad you all like.

**Dennis Gardner** · 08-15-2005 10:37 PM

It looks great, and less grass to mow too. :D Looks like you plan for year-round usage, the only way to justify a pool IMO.

My wife looking over my shoulder says taller shrubs along the fence are in order.

Before the pool I had shrubs the height of the fence, had to lose them during construction. I not sure if I want all green back there or not, I'm thinking more on the line of Knockout Roses trimmed about half up the fence.

I find and post a picture of the shrubs I had back there once.

**keith allen** · 08-15-2005 11:06 PM

You built it?...I hate talented people

**disneyjoe7** · 08-15-2005 11:11 PM

No sorry I'm not that talented. Unless there's a sport in killing a beer :D

The pool looks awesome joe. Those roses would go quite nicely and should stay a good size (<4 feet tall I think) but can be a pain to keep looking nice. If you have someone do your landscaping / grasscutting no big deal then ;)

**reeltrouble1** · 08-16-2005 09:08 AM

I am packing the camel and donkey up for the trip since we'll be staying a while, they dont each much, see you Saturday.

**landry_p2000** · 08-16-2005 09:38 AM

That back yard should be on "Pimp my Crib". That is a nice retreat, and also a heck of a place to "kill a beer". Great job, and I hope you guys are enjoying it. :D

**disneyjoe7** · 08-16-2005 10:20 AM

landry_p2000,

I agree :)

Ted,

I hope your donkey has AC it will be 96f today the pool is 88f / the spa is 102f (when I turn it on) :D

The depth is 3' - 6', size is 13' - 34', screen is 18'x48', overall is not too bad / nice size. It's the second pool that I had built used the same company and salesperson. I don't think I could make it any bigger

**Ron-P** · 08-16-2005 05:36 PM

Very nice! Looks very refreshing. Why the covered patios?

I haven’t figure out what we (wife and I) wish to do in the back as far as landscaping.

Go with a tropical theme. Palm trees (Queen Palms), fruitless Red Banana trees, small Lilli type shrubs and such.

Two years ago I built a front patio and did a tropical landscape theme. Most of it has finally grown in. I still plan to add a bit more but I'm in the process of doing the backyard now. I planted 2 Queen Plams just far enough apart to hang a hammock between, next summer they'll be big enough for the hammock. I also plan to add outdoor speakers so I can play tropical sounds (birds and such).

Here's an updated pic of the patio.

**disneyjoe7** · 08-16-2005 06:35 PM

Why covered patios

Why not the heat in Florida is unbearable at times, you need the ceiling fans 2 and the shade.

As far as the landscape I will be calling a landscaper for his / her input, so I / we don't make any bad decisions.
