Hey Kim... I repaired the umbrella!!

Tahoe Blue pebble

The putting green IS my zen garden ;)

Haha... you busted me! I literally turned all that on just for your guys! I don't run them very often. A Im testing the water every Saturday and logging the results in a spreadsheet I keep on my phone. My last three weeks pH are as follows: 7.6, 7.4, 7.7 As this week's reading is a touch...

Flags installed today

I have no issue sharing! The putting surface is $14/sq ft. I have 300 sq ft. The fringe and chipping area are $8/ sq ft. I have 190 sq ft of that. So my set up is just shy of $6,000. You can do the math on your own design. I'm not gonna lie... it was very tempting to do more turf up the...

Yes, Kim. The idea is that the small side is a chipping area. You can pitch shots from there to the green. We should have the little flags on Monday. Glad you noticed the stone path... I like at almost as much as the green!! Water looks great. I test every week. PB finally added the salt this...

Funny story about our new umbrella (actually nobody was laughing)... we left it out over night, but lowered and tied it. Little bit of wind that night, but nothing major. Didn't matter, it still blew over and broke. So it lasted less than 12 hours. Bummer, we really liked it. I'm going to try...

Lots of progress over . I'll get right to the pics...

Who has a suggestion on low voltage lighting for my yard? The landscaper arrives on Tuesday and I'm feeling pressure to get the wires laid out before he plants the sod. Im tempted just to grab a transformer and a bunch of lights and wire from Home Depot (Hampton Bay). Any reason not to do that??

Okay it's update time. We actually disappeared on vacation for a week. While we were gone they completed the cabana (minus hanging the ceiling fan, twinkle lights, or tv). Here are a few pics...

I don't like how Sonos forces you to play all content through their proprietary app. I prefer to use native apps (especially Spotify where we have a family premium account). That way regardless of where I am listening to music (car, boat, house, yard, running, etc) it's always the same familiar...

Jim... here's where my head is at I've been reading great reviews of the Bose 51 speakers. I'm thinking 2-4 would be enough for us. I can run a reciever from the cabana as there's power there and I can run speaker wire anywhere I need from back there. My issue is I don't know what reciever to...
