Perfect timing, will be getting lots of rain next few days

Karen, We love the mini set also and thought the kids would love hanging out there too. We were wrong, the kids were in the pool all day. It was a favorite hangout for the adults though.

Thanks Just-a-PB. Luckily no stains, just the blue plaster streaks from the poor acid wash. Will check into the drain covers.

Yeah, not too happy. They didn't do the acid wash as good as I liked. :( When they come out to do the chemical start up, another plaster guy said to have them do an "acid stack" where they put the muriatic acid in a steel tube right on some of the more blue spots. Hopefully it will help. He...

The pic was while I was working in Surprise. I live in Litchfield Park just West of Luke AFB. My house got less rain, but still helped fill the pool a little bit. Pool almost full now. Took five hoses to fill 32,000 gallons in about 24 hours with a little help from Mother Nature.

Yippee!! Getting a major rain storm right now! Pool will be all filled up tonight. Sorry Cwes, hopefully the rain won't affect your build too much, they will pump out the water.

We actually have 5 hoses going right now. We would really have a watch-the-pool-filling party Sat. if we just had one hose. :)) Will post pics of the rest of the pool soon.

And we finally have water filling the pool!!! Just in time for the pool party this weekend. Having some out-of-town guests this weekend. Was afraid that it was going to be a watch-the-pool fill up party but plaster company came thru at the last minute.

We also wanted to have a volleyball net, but we had a problem as we have a slide, rock, and pedestal on one side. So we made these niches at shotcrete: Had plaster put in 1 1/2" female adapters on both sides of the pool: And for $12 worth of PVC pipes, we now have an in pool volleyball set!

Passed inspection yesterday. Plaster going in today.

Getting close to plaster, final inspection scheduled for Tuesday. Have a question. What is a good sealer to use for flagstone. We just have a small section off the waterfall pictured below that has flagstone. Will be using an SWG. Also heard that it is best to seal it when it is cooler?

Hey cwe, Bulldogz is in Vegas. I ordered my umbrellas online, not sure which stores here still has some left.
