I didn’t go with an actual color but showed them 5 pictures and said I want this. But was like a Blue Tahoe, I’ll get the color name when I get an invoice from the finish guys. Gotta love this area.
New Pool Build in Apache Junction AZ

- Start date
Yes it was started in the deep end, I added the other 2 well into the fill.
We were treated to nice warm light and calm conditions after the startup. I stuck the iPhone down against the water for reflection shot 
Can you tell me the depth of the seat around your table? We're trying to finalize our tanning ledge depth as well as our seat around our table. We're short people, and what the pool builder is recommending seems too low for us shorties! Also, how's the knee space around the table? Anything you'd do differently in that area?

Hey Rob - @Arizonarob - isn't that our invite pic? Road trip to AJ!Keep rubbing it in!! Show off.
Seriously, that's a stunning picture @Don_TLR
I’ll get a measuring tape on it tomorrow, if your short maybe rase the sated up a bit.. my last pool the table was in the water, Trazo Crete recommends 1.5 -2 inches above the water.. My last table wold get algae underneath as it sat about 1/2 underwater so this will take some getting used to. I’m sure one of my initial plan pictures shows seat info.
AJ’s not that far, you’re both welcome to come out and share a beverage..Hey Rob - @Arizonarob - isn't that our invite pic? Road trip to AJ!

Small detour,, waterfall guys were adding grout between waterline and waterfall but dropped some (a Lot) so they had someone come to vacuum and clean my filter. It didn't look good and I wasn't happy so they drained and I refilled yesterday topping it off this morning. Back to a clean pool today..
Someone dropped the ball getting it done before the finish went in, but happens and we move on..
They did add a few more rocks to the waterfall as it sent water to one side mostly, and they finally moved around some rocks and brought more they felt so bad.

That’s a lot of grout to drop to turn that pool afoul!!Glad you drained and refilled!!
Glad you drained and refilled!!
No kidding, their first thought was vacuum and wait 24 to 48 hours
NO..
So where is the pic of the waterfall running?? Did the extra rocks help even it all out?
GUrrrrrrrrrr on the "plopping" in the pool
vacuum and wait a couple of days?? NOPE!

Oops, missed that one Kim, I'll get a pic or vid of it flowing..
We had some Travertine left over and figured we might as well put it to good use. I got 3/8 minus as it was a better color and I could spread it around the side yard on both side of the tile for a more finished look. We had some brick edgers left over from the before the pool so I thought those could be put to good use here..

The problem with the edging is we're 8 bricks short and can't seem to find the right color nearby. Home Depot has Terracotta but I'm not sold on the idea of mixing them in with the River Red we already have.
Its been nice to get that spa going lately

15 Tons of 3/8 minus and a prior delivery of 15 tons screened gravel to finish filling in planters and other areas. My weelbarrow is getting a lot of use and so is the spa after moving 30 ton by hand..
If the color is not too far off them put one here and one there so they are random. That might solve the problem of being 8 short.
I bet the spa has been a blessing!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH and an adult drink in hand=life is good!

Yes thats what the GF suggested, mix them in but I'm searching hard for the right color, or paint
When I get the decorative rock in, the spa will get a workout along with my old bones..
