Hydrazzo is a polished exposed aggregate pool finish, it is applied much like traditional plaster or quartz. The exposure is typically done the following day with a strong acid solution. The pool is then polished, not buffed, with a water driven polishing unit. The surface is polished until a smooth surface is achieved. The same procedures can be done with a quartz finish, the major difference is Hydrazzo is a pre bagged mix with their proprietary ingredients mixed with the cement and aggregates.

If you get a few more of the pool building gals in here you'll have one of those epic tx threads in no time!
I live in Texas, but work for a major corporation based out of Memphis, TN. I can appreciate your perspective, and I agree, our climates are very similar, with yours being just a bit less humid and a bit less hot (a few degrees usually). I was up there for a trip and we went to the Redbirds game at Autozone Park (Mid-May), and the weather was just incredible. I'd say any advice regarding "regional" issues should apply to you the same as it applies to us. I also have family here in Texas and in Memphis as well, and enjoy visiting them a few times a year when I'm up there on business.
Glad to have you, I love the backyard area, looks very nice.

I always thought it was because it's a 12 hour drive from Shreveport to El Paso, or Amarillo to Brownsville. Takes a serious lot of people to fill that up, take care of it, and keep everyone fed!

Jokes on you bud! I figured out where the water hose goes in only like 4 days. It's the big hole, which later becomes the water part. There was a youtube video and everything...
Depends on the location. I prefer Texas BBQ at a few places like JB's BBQ in Orange, TX. And I prefer the Commissary in Germantown. Both are awesome in their own right. You might blast me for this, but I think Corky's and Rendezvous are just ok.
"only like 4 days" Thanks for making me spit out my coffee! LOL!
Not a Rendevous fan or the Commissary. Corkys is ok but I do love the rolls there. Yum!
The best BBQ is from my own backyard in lovely Dogwood Grove Neighborhood in Germantown :chef: or hanging out at the BBQ fest....
EVERYTIME I'm there during the BBQ Fest week it is raining...I've never been able to go.
Also, I have heard great things about Gus' Fried Chicken, ALSO never been. That's 100% gonna happen next trip.
