New build in South Texas

[martinkennedy]

Kim,

No critters of any kind have found their way into the pool (thankfully). Abby has been the only dog in the pool and I had to coax her in. The Danes are acting like, thanks, but no thanks.

That is great to hear! With mom taking care of the wild critters on the feeding deck you really should not have a problem with them.

The dogs.............with all of the lab in Abby has in her I thought for sure she would be in the pool all of the time. It is easier for her to not be in though. The fur in the filter and the wet doggie wanting to come inside the house LOL.

Gorgeous!!!
Your pool design and material helped me convinced hubby to change the whole tile selection and to add additional lights to the deck area. We keep coming back to this post to look for design inspirations. So, thank you!

You can never have two many lights. We have 99 in total

martin/diane - i meant to comment on the article in the architectural magazine - especially the one photo where it talks about the curves of the pool being designed so it looks like the water is flowing as one body of water with the river. The photo captured that intent completely and it looks exactly as if your desire was achieved. Your home and property look like a version of paradise. -karen

It is neat to be able to see and read about the build. Then to see if featured like that! NICE!

The photo of the view behind the tanning shelf looking out to the river is my favorite. And I just want you to know, we picked out our dining table BEFORE I noticed its the same as yours in these photos. I am stealing your door ideas though.... -Karen

I always take everyone back to how the backyard looked before the transformation

 

[Twolabs]

Yeah I'll take the "before"......

WOW. This has to be in the TFP Hall of Fame pool threads doesn't it?

 

[zethacat]

Hey Martin can you update your signature so we can see the specs on that .... what should I call it ... resort?

 

[martinkennedy]

Another before picture

 

[kimkats]

So which yard would be used more? LOL

Do the dogs miss their yard? Or do you have another area they can run and romp?

Did you already have a vision in your mind when you started thinking about the pool?

The view at that angle where it almost looks like the pool is part of the river -- that is just amazing. At first I thought it really was until I went back and looked at some of the previous pictures. Wow. Just incredible!!
