It's been over a month since gunite. I have been pretty busy with work so I haven't spent as much time as I would have liked, but I feel pretty good for where it's at in the construction process. I know how I enjoy looking at other peoples pictures so I thought I would add some to give everyone an update that cares to look or follow along. I have only had about 7-8 good work days since gunite but here ya go
Start of gunite back on April 22nd. It's a good thing I looked at this picture because I just noticed one of my bonding wires coming off the rebar cage got covered up by the gunite! So I guess I know what will be at the top of the list for tomorrow. I looked through the rest of my pictures just to make sure no more were covered.
This is where my stress level went up!! An hour after the gunite crew left it started pouring for about 30 minutes.
Removed more dirt for the base material under the travertine deck
Started the retaining wall around the equipment pad
I bought a water meter so when it comes time to fill the pool I will know exactly how many gallons it is, and it should also be easy to see if I have any leaks in the future.
Picture with half of the base material in and compacted for the deck
The start of the first rock retaining wall
Rock retaining wall done and ended up being 14ton!
Waterfall will start next week so I'll add more pictures after that.
and 
connecting all of the equipment! Glad it was not me trying to figure it all out!
