Some people have the Extra Terrestrials beaming ”Their” builders “Up”, you have the ET’s beaming you worker in! How close are you to Area 51? 
So I'll be spending this Halloween bonding with some more concrete. 
Deck has been poured and stamped, will fix a few things this week before staining.
Prettier pictures will be coming soon...

Nothing new as of yet, but i just want to point out the shadow pretty well mimicking the edge of the coping. Pretty good for someone who doesn't know what he's doing...lol
Stepping up my game a little.
Sexier pictures coming soon!!!

You are now this // close to being done!!! LOVE the shadow showing off your great work!
That's usually when the ground falls out from underneath your feet...
Here's a last minute addition picture before the turf goes down.
Much easier to run a gas line for bbq island before a sixty foot piece of grass is nailed down.
Exciting news: I am on the plaster guys radar.

Winter progress...
Here is a 100' roll of grass, hard part was getting it off the trailer by myself. (ok 12 year daughter helped a bit)
Little rope fence to protect, well me.
Good news is that my to-do list for this pool can now fit on one sheet of paper. Grass installation soon. Couple other minor things, then it's, dare i say? PLASTER!!!

Todays fix.
Well, way back in aught '21, I grouted the pebble border in between the travertine coping and the concrete deck. Everything was pretty until the grout cracked all along the concrete edge.
My fix is to put silicone in that pretty little cut groove. The silicone should allow for some movement.
Next week should be interesting...

I'm not 100% certain, but I think you want something along the lines of deck-o-seal, not silicone. Silicone does not flow like the self leveling sealants and I doubt it has the flexibility of them either.

Do not use silicone. It is the wrong material for that surface just like grout was.
Put a foam backing rod into the joint. Then fill it with self leveling polyurethane mastic. Deck-O-Seal can be used or
