A picture perfect day

[monkeywrench]

The landcaping and the little projects are never done but this is pretty close.

A couple of extra shots at different angles.
My father-in-law and I built the deck and the equipment shed.
I did all the landscape
Trex decking
3"river rock
"Cobble" concrete pavers
Sunsetter Awning
Still more to do

lovely!

did you remove the section of chain link fencing along the back, or camouflage it with the stone walls??

 

[Beanie]

Beautiful pool and a Red Sox fan to boot! Doesn't get any better, eh?

The chain link is there still by code, it is the 1.5" mesh link, I went with black so it blends in with the background
fairly well. It also supports the sprinkler system I made out of PVC and these fan spray nozzles I picked up.
I drilled and tapped every 10" and installed a nozzel. then pianted the whole thing black. Now just turn on the water and walk away for 20 minutes. :-D

Well, it just looks fabulous! I did the same thing...my whole back yard is pool and decking! Loving that 30 minutes of yard work aren't you???

Looks great! Very nice setup....
I have to ask...I notice alot of window air conditioners in the photo...and your neighbors. But the homes don't look that old to not have Central Air...is there a reason everyone has window AC?

ddpool,
all the houses you can see were built in the early 50's. Atic space is about 2ft, and the heating is
baseboard hot water so there is no duct work in the house to retro fit central air.
Plus the HOT season here is only several weeks at most.
As a matter of fact at 6am this morning it was 48 degrees
