Looks great! , we hope to start our construction first of November. We've discussed size of the pool deck ad nauseam. How wide is yours on the short and main side?
Y'all look at the first picture...................hehe I see a cute!! Look at the right side of the pool-----------toys trucks and such. Then on the left side the real thing!!! SO CUTE!!!

No worries!
So, I'm not sure of the actual dimensions, but can measure. We started with one idea, and ended with another. LOL! On the far side there is only 3 feet around, and 3 feet behind the deep end steps (the steps in the right of the photo). The total concrete (which includes a 10x12 pad for our storage shed) was 900 sq ft. We originally had 450 sq ft in the contract, and then added the additional (which I am SO glad we did).

No that's fine, thanks...quick estimates seems you have 9-10 feet on the main side. That's what we were looking at doing for lounge chairs etc.
I have 9 ft on 2 sides. With the loungers fully out you can easily get one person past it. Not much more than that though. And 9ft with a table and chairs gets tight really quick. I did 5 on the other two sides and wish I did 11ft /3ft with the same sq ft.
Very overcast today, but loving the liner. And so bummed I forgot about getting the grey drains/skimmers/returns. PB is going to check around for snap on plates to see if anyone makes them.
I'm pretty sure that the parts are available in grey. There should be a snap-on cover for the skimmer faceplate. The main drain grates should be easy enough. I don't think that I would remove the main drain frame because that could cause a leak. The return faceplates should be doable.
Looking good miss. And by looking good i mean HOLY GOODNESS GRACIOUS !! Sweet job with the 5400 decisions you had to make. You nailed it.
We only did a regular white light, but of course it’s all the rage with our littles tonight

I was like a kid in a candy store, so just tested the water. It’s dark here and very lightly misting. I don’t even know what the PB added today in terms of ‘chemicals’. So lots of things wrong, but at least I became familiarized with test kit. Right? 
New pool build, liner and water (trucked water) added today.
pH: 6.8
Cl: 5
Br: 10
FC: 10-12.5 (no CC’s)
CYA: 32-35 (the last few drops went in at once)
TA: 350 (which got me to pink not red red)

Recheck the numbers in the morning to see where everything is. Try to find out what was added.
