Thanks Karyn,
I am still learning a ton, and likely to change things still as I go. This is not a race for me, but an investment in my family and memories we will be making, and getting us all out of the house more and enjoying each other, dont necessarily need a pool for that, but it helps. I plan to be done by Feb or Mar, if it is right, if it takes longer so be it. With that in mind, below is my latest possible changes.
OOPs, forgot to mention, My daughter turns 11 in May, I did promise her a big pool party for that. SO it better be done by then. She wants wristbands for her guests. I think 20 should be enough. No more. Haaa.
After texting for a couple hours with AZ Waldo (who has a great build going on not far from me), and researching some of what we talked about, I am looking to possibly add magic stream color laminars to the build. I would remove the aerators I had planned, or at least run the provisions for the laminars (electrical and plumbing). I believe with all the water movement we have with the stream, waterfall, and spa waterfall, the aerators will not be needed. Also, they were mostly for the kids enjoyment anyway. I think the laminars will add a cool effect, especially at night, that we all can enjoy. My wife gave the nod on these as well. I am still determining the cost/value-add though, as it could be a costly addition.
